2024 looks like it has a lot of factors, let's see:
2024 = 2*2*2*11*23
#maths
(Yes I could have used a computer to work that out but mental arithmetic was more fun; I wrote the intermediates in this text box though!)
If you group 2*2*11=44 and the rest 2*23=46, you get
2024=44*46
That means next year,
2025=45^2
You're quite old if you were alive in the previous square year, 1936.
