87 is:

  • the sum of the squares of the first four primes (87 = 22 + 32 + 52 + 72).
  • the sum of the sums of the divisors of the first 10 positive integers.[1]
  • the thirtieth semiprime,[2] and the twenty-sixth distinct semiprime[3] and the eighth of the form (3.q).
  • together with 85 and 86,[4] forms the last semiprime in the 2nd cluster of three consecutive semiprimes; the first comprising 33, 34, 35.
  • with an aliquot sum of 33; itself a semiprime, within an aliquot sequence of five composite numbers (87,33,15,9,4,3,1,0) to the Prime in the 3-aliquot tree.
  • 5! - 4! - 3! - 2! - 1! = 87
