The number found on a pencil relates the hardness of the lead inside of it.

The only thing I wonder about is why women haven't yet used this same number system on men!

wow mirror is on a roll with intelligent

If you'd really like to know, graphite pencils are "labled" according to their hardness or softness.... from 9B (hardest) to 9H (softest), HB is the medium softness and a 2H is a little bit softer than HB and is the most popular because it's easily visible and easily erased. And also most computer grading machines read them best. Anyways, they're generally called #2 and are the most readily available with erasers.
