143 (one hundred [and] forty-three) is the natural number following 142 and preceding 144.
143 is the sum of seven consecutive primes (11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29 + 31). But this number is never the sum of an integer and its base 10 digits, making it a self number.
Every positive integer is the sum of at most 143 seventh powers (see Waring's problem).
143 is the difference in the first exception to the pattern shown below:
3 2 + 4 2 = 5 2 3 3 + 4 3 + 5 3 = 6 3 3 4 + 4 4 + 5 4 + 6 4 = 7 4 − 143 .
