minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink21•8 months ago60 is good because you can divide it by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30 which is convenient
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•edit-28 months agoCompared to 100 which can only be divided by 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50. Not too bad, but not as good.
