80 (eighty) is the natural number following 79 and preceding 81.

In mathematics

80 is:

  • the sum of Euler's totient function φ(x) over the first sixteen integers.
  • a semiperfect number, since adding up some subsets of its divisors (e.g., 1, 4, 5, 10, 20 and 40) gives 80.[1]
  • a ménage number.[2]
  • palindromic in bases 3 (22223), 6 (2126), 9 (889), 15 (5515), 19 (4419) and 39 (2239).
  • a repdigit in bases 3, 9, 15, 19 and 39.

The Pareto principle (also known as the 80-20 rule) states that, for many events, roughly 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes.[3][4]

Every solvable configuration of the 15 puzzle can be solved in no more than 80 single-tile moves.[5]
