number propertiers Flashcards
the product of a set of n consec int is always div by n!
(5x6)/2!
product of any set of consec int is div by any int in set & any combo of ints
n! must be div by any int or combo of int from 1 to n
all perfect sq end in
0,1,4,5,6,9
except for 0 or 1, perfect sq have [even/odd] exponents
even. (only way sq rt = int)
first 8 perfect cubs
0/1/ 2-8/ 3-27/ 4-64/ 5-125/ 6-216/ 7-343/ 8-512
PF of perfect cubes contain only exp that are multiples of
3
decimal terminates when
decimal terminates iff denom of equiv. most reduced fraction has only PFs of 2,5 or both
number patterns - remainders
for division, remainders will loop from 0 to n-1. if exp are involved, first figure out what pattern is eg. (3^82)/4, r=?. 3^1 / 4, r=3. 3^2 / 4, r=1. 3^3 / 4, r=3…
units digits patterns. units digits raised to consec increasing exp follow a pattern.
3^1, 3. 3^2, 9. 3^3, _7. 3^4 _1. Pattern is 3,9,7,1
remainders dividing by powers of 10
remainders will be last n digits of dividend, where n = 10^n
remainders dividing by 5
when #s w/ same units digit div by 5, remainder is same. eg 9/5, r4. 19/5, r4.
3 types of evenly spaced sets
1-consec int
2-multiples of a #
3-consec #s w/ a given remainder when div by some int (eg 1,6,11,16,21 – div by 5 r1)
2 consec int will never share same PF
GCF of 2 consec int =1
