(x) = 118, making 118 a nontotient
Nontotient
In number theory, a nontotient is a positive integer n which is not in the range of Euler's totient function φ, that is, for which φ = n has no solution. In other words, n is a nontotient if there is no integer x that has exactly n coprimes below it. All odd numbers are nontotients, except 1,...

118 is the smallest n such that the range n, n + 1, ... 4n/3 contains at least one prime from each of these forms: 4x + 1, 4x - 1, 6x + 1 and 6x - 1.

Another way in which 118 is the smallest is that there are no smaller integers that can be expressed as the sum of three integers such that each set of three has the same product. For 118, those are 14 + 50 + 54 = 15 + 40 + 63 = 18 + 30 + 70 = 21 + 25 + 72.
