What is the smallest number with exactly 14 divisors?
Many numbers can be expressed as the sum of two or more consecutive integers. For example, 15=7+8 and 10=1+2+3+4. Can you say which numbers can be expressed in this way?
If it takes four men one day to build a wall, how long does it take 60,000 men to build a similar wall?
Some 4 digit numbers can be written as the product of a 3 digit number and a 2 digit number using the digits $1$ to $9$ each once and only once.
The number $4396$ can be written as just such a product. Can you find the factors?
Maths is full of surprises! The number $5796$ can be written as a product like this in two DIFFERENT ways, and so can the number $5346$. Can you find these four funny factorisations?
Here is another puzzle, again you must use the digits $1$ to $9$ once, but only once, to replace the stars and complete this multiplication example.
This gives altogether six funny factorisations and there is one more. You might like to write a computer program to find all seven funny factorisations or you might come up with a different method. Let us know.
