What to Focus On

  • Natural numbers start from 1 and are used for counting
  • Prime number 2 is the only even prime number
  • Zero is neither positive nor negative

  • Only need to check divisibility up to the square root of a number
  • 2 is the only even prime number
  • Prime numbers > 3 follow the pattern 6n ± 1

  • Divisibility rules save time in calculations and problem-solving
  • For composite divisors, check divisibility by their prime factors
  • The rule for 11 uses alternating sum of digits

Common Mistakes to Avoid

When checking if a number is prime, you must test divisibility with all numbers below it

LCM is always found by multiplying the prime factors to their highest powers, and this method works fastest for all numbers

In remainder problems, you must always use positive remainders and cannot use negative remainders
