the five number game - the craziest game to find squred numbers and prime numbers


Hello bloggers, this week in maths we played a game. The game is called the five number game
because you chose five numbers from ten and sixty inclusive and then you add them in an specific order. First you put your numbers in ascending order, then you add the first two numbers together, then the second and the third then keep going till you get to the last number. After that you add up your points. The points work like this you look through your answers and see if you have any prime numbers ( prime numbers are numbers that only have factors of 1 and them self ) and if you do you get three points. After that you look for any square numbers (numbers are the product of numbers multiplied by themselves) and that gives you two points. After you find all your points you add all of the points together and that's your score. After you try that you could do it again but one to sixty inclusive or you could try ten and sixty inclusive again but with different numbers and try to get a different score. Try it because all you need is a piece of paper a pen and some spare time.
