Hello there.

This is Numberphile. We mainly post videos about mathematics and just numbers in general.

Brown Numbers

Brown Numbers

There are only three pairs of Brown Numbers - and only five of the numbers themselves (because 5 is repeated)... At least we think that's all of them? No-one has proven it. This is called Brocard's Problem and has been entertained by great mathematicians such as Paul Erdos.

The Brown Numbers are (5,4) (11,5) and (71,7).
