The most well known multiple of 37 is the beast number (666). The first occurrence of 666 in pi appears on digits 2441, 2442 and 2443, when including the initial 3 before the decimal point, i.e. the whole series of pi 's digits. The sum of these is 7326 or 11 * 666. [Mallett]

The following 37-word quotation is ascribed to the great Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler (1707-1783): "Mathematicians have tried in vain to this day to discover some order in the sequence of prime numbers, and we have reason to believe that it is a mystery into which the human mind will never penetrate."

2+2=√16

37 * 03 = 111
   * 06 = 222
   * 09 = 333
   * 12 = 444
   * 15 = 555
   * 18 = 666
   * 21 = 777
   * 24 = 888
   * 27 = 999.
All three-digit repdigits are divisible by 37.

2+2=√16

Ooooooohhhhhh......
there's an infinite amount of primes, and I'm still on 37......

(so logically, if there's an infinite amount, no, no it won't end.... 8) )

2+2=√16
