Find a number which:
a) It is divisible by \(4\) and by \(6\), is has a total of 3 prime factors, which may be repeated.
b) It is divisible by \(6, 9\) and \(4\), but not divisible by \(27\). It has \(4\) prime factors in total, which may be repeated.
c) It is divisible by \(5\) and has exactly \(3\) positive divisors.
a) The number \(a\) is even. Should \(3a\) definitely also be even?
b) The number \(5c\) is divisible by \(3\). Is it true that \(c\) is definitely divisible by \(3\)?
c) The product \(a \times b\) is divisible by \(7\). Is it true that one of these numbers is divisible by \(7\)?
d) The product \(c \times d\) is divisible by \(26\). Is it true that one of these numbers is divisible by \(26\)?
a) The number \(a^2\) is divisible by \(11\). Is \(a^2\) necessarily also divisible by \(121\)?
b) The number \(b^2\) is divisible by \(12\). Is \(b^2\) necessarily also divisible by \(144\)?
What is the smallest integer \(n\) such that \(n\times (n-1)\times (n-2) ... \times 2\) is divisible by \(990\)?
Jack believes that he can place \(99\) integers in a circle such that for each pair of neighbours the ratio between the larger and smaller number is a prime. Can he be right?
a) Prove that a number is divisible by \(8\) if and only if the number formed by its laast three digits is divisible by \(8\).
b) Can you find an analogous rule for \(16\)? What about \(32\)?
Look at this formula found by Euler: \(n^2 +n +41\). It has a remarkable property: for every integer number from \(1\) to \(21\) it always produces prime numbers. For example, for \(n=3\) it is \(53\), a prime. For \(n=20\) it is \(461\), also a prime, and for \(n=21\) it is \(503\), prime as well. Could it be that this formula produces a prime number for any natural \(n\)?
Denote by \(n!\) (called \(n\)-factorial) the following product \(n!=1\cdot 2\cdot 3\cdot 4\cdot...\cdot n\). Show that if \(n!+1\) is divisible by \(n+1\), then \(n+1\) must be prime. (It is also true that if \(n+1\) is prime, then \(n!+1\) is divisible by \(n+1\), but you don’t need to show that!)
A little Jimmy visited his four aunties today. Each of them prepared a cake for him and his parents. Auntie Martha made a carrot cake, Auntie Camilla made a sponge, Auntie Becky made a chocolate cake and Auntie Anne made a fudge. Jimmy would like to visit the aunties the next time when aunties all make the same cakes again. What day should he pick, if Auntie Martha makes a carrot cake every two days, Auntie Camilla makes a sponge every three days, Auntie Becky makes a chocolate cake every four days and Auntie Anne makes a fudge every seven days?
a) Two numbers, \(a\) and \(b\), are relatively prime and their product is equal to \(3^5 \times 7^2\). What could these numbers be? Find all the possibilities.
b) The gcd of two numbers, \(c\) and \(d\), is \(20\) and their product is \(2^4 \times 5^3\). What could these numbers be? Find all the answers.
