224 is a practical number,[1] and a sum of two positive cubes 23 + 63.[2] It is also 23 + 33 + 43 + 53, making it one of the smallest numbers to be the sum of distinct positive cubes in more than one way.[3]

224 is the smallest k with λ(k) = 24, where λ(k) is the Carmichael function.[4]

The mathematician and philosopher Alex Bellos suggested in 2014 that a candidate for the lowest uninteresting number would be 224 because it was, at the time, "the lowest number not to have its own page on Wikipedia".[5]
