120 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5.

120 has a unique representation as a sum of three squares: 120 = 22 + 42 + 102.

120 = 5!

120 is the 15th triangular number. It is the sum of the first 15 positive integers.

120 is the eighth tetrahedral number.

120 is a hexagonal number.

120 = 31 + 32 + 33 + 34.

120 is the smallest composite number of the form x! whose digit sum (1 + 2 + 0 = 3) and x (5) are both primes.

120 is the smallest three-digit number that may be expressed as the difference between squares of consecutive primes in tow different ways: 120 = 312 - 292 = 172 - 132.
