148 (one hundred [and] forty-eight) is the natural number following 147 and before 149.
In mathematics
148 is the second number to be both a heptagonal number and a centered heptagonal number (the first is 1). [1] It is the twelfth member of the Mian–Chowla sequence, the lexicographically smallest sequence of distinct positive integers with distinct pairwise sums. [2]
There are 148 perfect graphs with six vertices, [3] and 148 ways of partitioning four people into subsets, ordering the subsets, and selecting a leader for each subset. [4]
In other fields
In the Book of Nehemiah 7:44 there are 148 singers, sons of Asaph, at the census of men of Israel upon return from exile. This differs from Ezra 2:41, where the number is given as 128. [5]
Dunbar's number is a theoretical cognitive limit to the number of people with whom one can maintain stable interpersonal relationships. Dunbar predicted a "mean group size" of 148, [6] but this is commonly rounded to 150.
