Math 149. Capstone Mathematics for Teachers. Spring 2012.
Homework 1
Suggestions: some good/relatively easy numbers to choose from are 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 16, 25, 100, but there are a few others as well. E.g. do you know a divisibility test for 7?
Resources: Many divisibility tests are posted on Internet. E.g. type "divisibility tests" in Google. However, most pages do not provide proofs. Try to prove the rules you recall or find on your own. If you get stuck on some, I encourage you to consult your number theory textbook, work together, and/or ask me.
