| '''11''' ('''eleven''' {{IPAc-en|audio=En-us-eleven.ogg|ɨ|ˈ|l|ɛ|v|ɨ|n}} or {{IPAc-en|i|ˈ|l|ɛ|v|ɛ|n}}) is the [[natural number]] following [[10 (number)|10]] and preceding [[12 (number)|12]].
| |
| | |
| In English, it is the smallest positive integer requiring three syllables and the largest prime number with a single-morpheme name. Its etymology originates from a Germanic compound ''ainlif'' meaning "one left".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=eleven |title=eleven |publisher=Online Etymology Dictionary |date= |accessdate=2011-11-11}}</ref>).

| 11 is the 5th smallest [[prime number]]. It is the smallest two-digit prime number in the [[decimal]] [[radix|base]]; as well as, of course, in [[undecimal]] (where it is the smallest two-digit number). It is also the smallest three-digit prime in [[Ternary numeral system|ternary]], and the smallest four-digit prime in [[binary numeral system|binary]], but a single-digit prime in bases larger than 11, such as [[duodecimal]], [[hexadecimal]], [[vigesimal]] and [[sexagesimal]]. 11 is the fourth [[Sophie Germain prime]], the third [[safe prime]], the fourth [[Lucas prime]], the first [[repunit prime]], and the second [[good prime]]. Although it is necessary for ''n'' to be prime for 2<sup>''n''</sup> − 1 to be a [[Mersenne prime]], the [[converse (logic)|converse]] is not true: 2<sup>11</sup> − 1 = 2047 which is 23 × 89. The next prime is [[13 (number)|13]], with which it comprises a [[twin prime]]. 11 is an [[Eisenstein prime]] with no imaginary part and real part of the form 3''n'' − 1. Displayed on a calculator, 11 is a [[strobogrammatic prime]] and a [[dihedral prime]] because it reads the same whether the calculator is turned upside down or reflected on a mirror, or both.
| |
| | |
| If a number is divisible by 11, reversing its digits will result in another multiple of 11. As long as no two adjacent digits of a number added together exceed 9, then multiplying the number by 11, reversing the digits of the product, and dividing that new number by 11, will yield a number that is the reverse of the original number. (For example: 142,312 x 11 = 1,565,432. 2,345,651 / 11 = 213,241.)
| |
| | |
| Because it has a reciprocal of unique period length among primes, 11 is the second [[unique prime]]. 11 goes into 99 exactly 9 times, so [[vulgar fraction]]s with 11 in the [[denominator]] have two [[numerical digit|digit]] repeating sequences in their [[decimal]] expansions. Multiples of 11 by one-digit numbers all have matching double digits: 00 (=0), 11, 22, 33, 44, etc. Bob Dorough, in his ''[[Schoolhouse Rock]]'' song "The Good Eleven", called them "Double-digit doogies" (soft g).
| |
| 11 is the [[Aliquot sum]] of one number, the discrete [[semiprime]] [[21 (number)|21]] and is the base of the 11-aliquot tree.
| |
| | |
| As 11 is the smallest factor of the first 11 terms of the [[Euclid–Mullin sequence]], it is the 12th term.
| |
| | |
| An 11-sided [[polygon]] is called a [[hendecagon|hendecagon or undecagon]].
| |
| | |
| In both base 6 and base 8, the smallest prime with a composite sum of digits is 11.
| |
| | |
| Any number ''b''+1 is written as "11<sub>''b''</sub>" in base ''b'', so 11 is trivially a [[palindromic number|palindrome]] in base 10. However 11 is a [[strictly non-palindromic number]].
| |
| | |
| In base 10, there is a simple test to determine if an integer is divisible by 11: take every digit of the number located in odd position and add them up, then take the remaining digits and add them up. If the difference between the two sums is a multiple of 11, including 0, then the number is divisible by 11.<ref>{{cite book |title=Number Story: From Counting to Cryptography |last=Higgins |first=Peter |year=2008 |publisher=Copernicus |location=New York |isbn=978-1-84800-000-1 |page=47 |pages= }}</ref> For instance, if the number is 65,637 then (6 + 6 + 7) - (5 + 3) = 19 - 8 = 11, so 65,637 is divisible by 11. This technique also works with groups of digits rather than individual digits, so long as the number of digits in each group is odd, although not all groups have to have the same number of digits. For instance, if one uses three digits in each group, one gets from 65,637 the calculation (065) - 637 = -572, which is divisible by 11.
| |
| | |
| Another test for divisibility is to separate a number into groups of two consecutive digits (adding a leading zero if there is an odd number of digits), and then add up the numbers so formed; if the result is divisible by 11, the number is divisible by 11. For instance, if the number is 65,637, 06 + 56 + 37 = 99, which is divisible by 11, so 65,637 is divisible by eleven. This also works by adding a trailing zero instead of a leading one: 65 + 63 + 70 = 198, which is divisible by 11. This also works with larger groups of digits, providing that each group has an even number of digits (not all groups have to have the same number of digits).
| |
| | |
| An easy way of [[multiply]]ing numbers by 11 in base 10 is:
| |
| If the number has:
| |
| *1 digit - Replicate the digit (so 2 x 11 becomes 22).
| |
| *2 digits - Add the 2 digits together and place the result in the middle (so 47 x 11 becomes 4 (11) 7 or 4 (10+1) 7 or (4+1) 1 7 or 517).
| |
| *3 digits - Keep the first digit in its place for the result's first digit, add the first and second digits together to form the result's second digit, add the second and third digits together to form the result's third digit, and keep the third digit as the result's fourth digit. For any resulting numbers greater than 9, carry the 1 to the left. Example 1: 123 x 11 becomes 1 (1+2) (2+3) 3 or 1353. Example 2: 481 x 11 becomes 4 (4+8) (8+1) 1 or 4 (10+2) 9 1 or (4+1) 2 9 1 or 5291.
| |
| *4 or more digits - Follow the same pattern as for 3 digits.
| |
| | |
| In base 10, 11 is the smallest integer that is not a [[Nivenmorphic number]].
| |
| | |
| In base 13 and higher bases (such as [[hexadecimal]]), 11 is represented as B, where ten is A. In [[duodecimal]], however, 11 is sometimes represented as E and ten as T.
| |
| | |
| 11 is a [[Størmer number]], a [[Heegner number]], and a [[Mills' constant#Mills primes|Mills prime]].
| |
| | |
| There are 11 orthogonal curvilinear [[coordinate systems]] (to within a conformal symmetry) in which the 3-variable [[Helmholtz equation]] can be solved using the [[separation of variables]] technique.
| |
| | |
| See also [[11-cell]].
| |
| | |
| 11 of the thirty-five [[hexominoes]] can be folded to form cubes. 11 of the sixty-six [[octiamonds]] can be folded to form octahedra.
| |
| | |
| The [[partition (number theory)|partition]] numbers {{OEIS|id=A000041}} contain much more multiples of 11 than the one-eleventh one would expect.
| |
| | |
| According to [[David A. Klarner]], a leading researcher and contributor to the study of [[polyominoes]], it is possible to cut a rectangle into an odd number of congruent, non-rectangular polyominoes. 11 is the smallest such number, the only such number that is prime, and the only such number that is not a multiple of three.
| |
| | |
| 11 raised to the n power is the nth row of Pascal's Triangle. (This works for any base)

| *There are 11 players on a [[association football|soccer]] team on the field at a time as well as in a [[cricket]] team.
