 47 (number) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The origin of 47 lore at Pomona appears to be a mathematical proof, written in 1964 by Professor Donald Bentley, which supposedly demonstrated that all numbers are equal to 47.
Its representation in binary being 101111, 47 is a prime Thabit number, and as such is related to the pair of amicable numbers {17296, 18416}.
The intentionality of this reference to 47 was confirmed by Brannon Braga, the writer of that episode [1].

 PCM > The Mystery of 47
And when I was told that 47 degrees is the approximate azimuth angle of an object on the horizon which passes through the zenith at the latitude of Claremont, there was just a bit of wonder mixed into my blank stare.
Maybe, in the final analysis, it's not the occurrence of 47 in nature that is important but the number's ability to evoke a feeling of nostalgia for Pomona--to awaken, in a glance, all those sleeping memories of life here.
Mets proposes that the mystery of 47 lies not in any set of occurrences that prove that 47 is a magic number but in everyone's agreement that they do.

At one point, HK informs the main character that the most optimal way of defeating a group of enemies is to simply toss grenades in every direction.
