SUMMARY
The number 666 exhibits several intriguing mathematical properties. It can be expressed as 2(012) + 20(12) + 201(2) = 666. Additionally, 666 is the sum of the first seven prime numbers and satisfies the Euler totient function where φ(666) = 6.6.6. The sum of integers from 1 to 6.6 equals 666, and φ is also represented as -2sin(666°) = -2cos(6.6.6°). Notably, the original "number of the beast" was 616, not 666.
