( level)

Use the pictured rectangular arrays to complete the following tasks. 1. Do a gallery walk to answer the following questions. a. Prime numbers are numbers that have exactly two factors. In our activity you would only see one rectangle. Name 3 prime numbers.

b. A composite number is a number that has more than two factors. In our activity, a composite number would have more than one rectangle. Name 5 composite numbers.

c. A square number is a number that you get from multiplying another number by itself. It can also be represented by a square in our activity. For example, 9 is a square number. If you multiply 3 by itself, you get 9. Also, if I make three rows of three I would have a square. Name 3 square numbers.

Use the rectangular arrays you made to answer the following questions. 2. List the numbers you represented for our activity. _________________________________ 3. Did you show a prime number(s)? (Numbers with only 2 factors, one rectangle in our activity) If so, name it/them.

4. Did you show a composite number(s)? (Numbers with more than 2 factors, or two or more rectangles in our activity) If so, name it/them.

5. Did you show a square number(s)? (Numbers that formed a square) If so, name it/them.

6. List all of the factors for each of your numbers. Use the rainbow method to help you. Example: The factors of 6: 1, 2, 3, 6
