- 20 is the basis for vigesimal number systems.
- 20 is the third composite number comprising the product of a squared prime and a prime, and also the second member of the (22)q family in this form.
- 20 is the smallest primitive abundant number.[4]
- An icosahedron has 20 faces. A dodecahedron has 20 vertices.
- 20 can be written as the sum of three Fibonacci numbers uniquely, i.e. 20 = 13 + 5 + 2.

The metric equivalent is 6/6). When someone is able to see only after an event how things turned out, that person is often said to have had "20/20 hindsight".
As an indefinite number
- A 'score' is a group of 20 (often used in combination with a cardinal number, i.e. fourscore to mean 80), but also often used as an indefinite number[7] (e.g. the newspaper headline "Scores of Typhoon Survivors Flown to Manila")[8]
In sports
- Twenty20 is a form of limited overs cricket where each team plays only 20 overs.
- A standard dartboard is laid out as 20 sectors.
- The Kentucky Derby currently has a maximum field of 20 horses.

""Score" is related to "share" and comes from the Old Norse "skor" meaning a "notch" or "tally" on a stick used for counting. ... Often people counted in 20s; every 20th notch was larger, and so "score" also came to mean 20."
