Ramanujan from India, said the time of 6 p.m. if converted into minutes is a very interesting number. 360 is divisible by 2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,12,15, 18,20,24,30,36,40,45,60,72,90,120 and 180. Also if 5 is added to 360 we have 10^2+11^2+12^2 = 13^2+14^2 = 365 which is the number of days in a normal year.
