In mathematics
73 is:
- the 21st prime number. The previous is 71, with which it composes the 8th twin prime.
- a permutable prime with 37.
- a star number.[1]
- the largest minimal primitive root in the first 100,000 primes. In other words, if p is one of the first 100,000 primes, then at least one of the numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ..., 72, 73 is a primitive root modulo p.
- the smallest prime congruent to 1 modulo 24.
- an emirp, meaning that the reverse of 73, that is, 37, is also a prime number.[2] 73 is the 21st prime number while 37 is the 12th prime number.
- has the product property[3] (i.e., the product of its base-10 digits is precisely its index in the sequence of primes: 7 × 3 = 21 and 73 is the 21st prime number). It also has the mirror property[3] (i.e., its permutable prime 37 is the 12th prime number, which is, again, the reverse of 21). Because of these two properties, it is the sole Sheldon prime,[4] an homage to Sheldon Cooper, the fictional theoretical physicist on the television show The Big Bang Theory who claimed that 73 is the best number.
- the smallest prime with a composite sum of digits, in base 5.
- palindromic in bases 2 (10010012) and 8 (1118).
- the only prime repunit in base 8 (1118).
- the smallest factor of the first composite generalized Fermat number in base 10 (104 + 1 = 10,001 = 73 × 137).
Also:
- The number 21 has prime factors 7 and 3. The number 21 in binary is 10101; 7 in binary is 111, 3 in binary is 11, and seventy-three in binary is 1001001. All of these are palindromes. In addition, of the 7 binary digits representing 73, there are 3 ones. Also, 37 + 12 = 49 (seven squared) and 73 + 21 = 94 = 47 × 2, 47 + 2 also being equal to seven squared. Additionally, both 73 and its mirror, 37, are sexy primes twice over, as 31, 43, 67 and 79 are all prime numbers.
- In addition to having prime factors 7 and 3, the number 21 represents the ternary (base-3) equivalent of the decimal numeral 7, or 213 = 710.
- 73 = 343, a palindrome. Replacing the first two digits of 343 with their sum yields 73.
- Every positive integer can be written as the sum of 73 or fewer sixth powers (see Waring's problem).

- The New General Catalogue object NGC 73, a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Cetus.
- The number of seconds it took for the Space Shuttle Challenger OV-099 shuttle to explode after launch.
- 73 is the number of rows in the 1,679-bit Arecibo message, sent to space in search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

- Amateur radio operators and other morse code users commonly use the number 73 as a "92 Code" abbreviation for "best regards", typically when ending a QSO (a conversation with another operator). These codes also facilitate communication between operators who may not be native English speakers. In Morse code, 73 is an easily recognized palindrome: ( - - · · · · · · - - ).
