  1. Splitting the number Numbers, like everything else, can be split up into smaller parts. For atoms, these smaller parts are called quarks. For numbers, they are called: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ F A C T O R S

  3. Divisibility • How can we tell if a number divides by 2? • How can we tell if a number divides by 5? • Can you come up with any rules for the other numbers?

  4. Divisibility Rules • 2: The last digit is even (0, 2, 4, 6, 8) • 3: Digits add up to a multiple of 3 • 4: The last 2 digits make a multiple of 4 • 5: The last digit is 0 or 5 • 6: The number divides by 2 and 3 • 7: (Nothing easy – sorry! Just try dividing) • 8: The last 3 digits make a multiple of 8 • 9: Digits add up to a multiple of 9 • 10: The last digit is 0

  5. Some numbers cannot be broken down at all P R I M E • These are called: _ _ _ _ _ numbers Eg: 17 = 1 x 17. (No other factors) • Find the first 7 prime numbers. (prime numbers have exactly 2 factors, so 1 is not a prime, but 2 is a prime) 2 3 5 7 11 13 17

  6. 12 18 Every number can be broken down until it is just prime numbers multiplied together. 3 6 4 3 2 2 2 3 2 x 2 x 3 2 x 3 x 3

  7. Does it divide by 10? By 5? By 2? By 3? If none, check 7, 11, ... Otherwise, prime. 420=22×3×5×7 10 42 2 21 5 2 7 3

  8. Use the factor tree method to break down these numbers into their smallest parts (‘prime factors’) 28 100 48 32 68 19 45 5050 891
