You all could play with it there. Kate has seen it done. Take a few ropes. Or if it's started already, buy some clothesline (not the best rope for this, but doable, I'd think) at a Walgreens or something. I would be tickled to hear about you all playing with this.

I kept getting hung up on the same thing repeatedly. A few days after I left, I sat down, started fresh, and nailed it. <br /><br />If memory serves, once you get the structure of the 7 test clear, it can be used to develop divisibility tests for other prime divisors. It's been a while since I've looked at that, however. Michael Paul Goldenberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04939966966192318775noreply@blogger.com
