201
201 is a odd composite number that follows 200 and precedes 202. It is composed of 4 distinct factors: 1, 3, 67, 201. Its prime factorization can be written as 3 × 67. 201 is classified as a deficient number based on the sum of its proper divisors. In computer science, 201 is represented as 11001001 in binary and C9 in hexadecimal. Historically, it is written as CCI in Roman numerals.
