69 (sixty-nine) is a number following 68 and preceding 70.

In mathematics

69 is:

• a lucky number.
• a semiprime.
• a Blum integer, since the two factors of 69 are both Gaussian primes.
• the sum of the sum of the divisors of the first 9 positive integers.
• the third composite number in the 13-aliquot tree. The aliquot sum of sixty-nine is 27 within the aliquot sequence (69,27,13,1,0).

Because 69 has an odd number of 1s in its binary representation, it is sometimes called an "odious number." Of note is that 69² (4761) and 69³ (328509) together use every decimal digit from 0-9. 69 is equal to 105 octal, while 105 is equal to 69 hexadecimal. This same property can be applied to all numbers from 64 to 69.

On many handheld scientific and graphing calculators, the highest factorial that can be calculated, due to memory limitations, is 69! or about 1.711224524×10⁹⁸.
