88
In Chinese, the word for eight sounds like the word for prosperity, so 88 is one of the luckiest numbers in China and is prized for phone numbers and addresses. There are 88 keys on a standard piano and 88 officially recognised constellations. Turned on its side, the figure 8 is the symbol for infinity. It reduces to Seven in numerology.
On a piano, the 88 keys are divided into 52 white and 36 black keys, and they span just over seven octaves.
Number facts
