  3. Number Sense Contest and Mathematics Contest Jam Session 108th edition of the Constitution and Contest Rules Of the University Interscholastic League 2018-19 Each contest now has its own handbook containing contest information and rules governing the contest (see the UIL Store).

  4. Number Sense Contest and Mathematics Contest Jam Session No new mathematicians. No new special type of numbers. Number Sense ---- Mathematics

  5. Number Sense Contest and Mathematics Contest Jam Session RULES No changes that I know of. Any questions about any rules? Number Sense ---- Mathematics

  6. Number Sense Contest and Mathematics Contest Jam Session Problems from past years Number Sense ---- Mathematics

  7. Miles  Kilometers using Fibonacci numbers What ????????

  8. The distance from Millersview to Edinburg is 413 miles or 665 kilometers. F14 + F9 + F3 = 377 + 34 + 2 = 413 miles (note: the sum of the least amount of non-consecutive Fibonacci numbers)

  9. The distance from Millersview to Edinburg is 413 miles or 665 kilometers. F14 + F9 + F3 = 377 + 34 + 2 = 413 miles (note: add 1 to each of the Fibonacci numbers above) F15 + F10 + F4 = 610 + 55 + 3 = 668 kilometers

  10. Observations: > Miles to kilometers or kilometers to miles … works both ways. > Note the ratio of Miles/kilometers = 413/668 = 0.6182… Kilometer/miles = 668/413 = 1.6174…

  11. Special Numbers & Unusual Primes

  12. Kaprekar Number The digits of the number squared can be divided into two parts such that sum of parts is equal to the original number and none of the parts has value 0. 452 = 2025 and 20 + 25 = 45 2972 = 88209 and 209 + 88 = 297 132 = 169, but 16 + 9 is not 13 nor is 1 + 69

  13. Narcissistic Number (Armstrong Number) Any n-digit number that is the sum of the nth power of each of its digits. 1 = 11 2 = 213 = 31 (all single digit numbers are narcissistic) 153 = 13 + 53 + 33 = 1 + 125 + 27 = 153 1634 = ? 14 + 64 + 34 + 44 = 1634

  14. Harshad Number(Niven Number)(multidigital number) Any number which is divisible by the sum of its digits. (all single digit numbers are Harshad) 10 is divisible by 1 + 0 72 is divisible by 7 + 2 108 is divisible by 1 + 0 + 8
