If you discount the pop-culture numbers (for us 7, 42, and 69) its the number most often chosen by people if you ask them for a random number between 1 and 100. It just seems the most random one to choose for a lot of people. Veritasium just did a video about it.

37 is my favorite, because 3x7x37=777 (three sevens), and I think that's neat.

Wrong. Two hints:

7x7=9 at the end, not 7.

30x30=900, already more than 777.

? My calculator definitely thinks that 3x7x37=777. Did you read it as 37x37 instead?

[-] mitrosus@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 2 months ago

Yes. Thanks. Sorry.

You don’t even need a calculator for a quick calculation, take the closest value of 10: 3x7=21x37 or easier 20x40 = 800 which is close to the actual number, 777.
