  • 2 (two) is a number, numeral, and glyph. It is the natural number after One and before Three.

    In mathematics.

    Two has many properties in mathematics. An integer is called "even" if it can be divided by 2. For integers written in a numeral system based on an even number, such as decimal and hexadecimal, it can be easily tested if it is a multiple of 2 by merely looking at the one's place digit. If it is even, then the whole number is even. In particular, when written in the decimal system, all multiples of 2 will end in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8.

    Two is the smallest and the first prime number, and the only even one (for this reason it is sometimes humorously called "the oddest prime"). The next prime is three. Two and three are the only two consecutive prime numbers. 2 is the first Sophie Germain prime, the first factorial prime, the first Lucas prime, and the first Smarandache-Wellin prime. It is an Eisenstein prime with no imaginary part and real part of the form formula_2. It is also a Stern prime, a Pell number, and a Markov number, appearing in infinitely many solutions to the Markov Diophantine equation involving odd-indexed Pell numbers.

    It is the third Fibonacci number, and the third and fifth Perrin numbers.

    Even though it is a prime number, two is also a highly composite number, because it has more divisors than the number one. The next highly composite number is four.

    Vulgar fractions with 2 or 5 in the denominator do not yield infinite decimal expansions, as is the case wit
