Tips to teach primes: No even numbers can be prime except for 2. No numbers ending in 5 (except for 5) can be prime. No numbers ending in 0 can be prime. If you can multiply any number to make the number in question other than | and itself it is not prime. The prime numbers between 1-50 are 2, 3, 5,7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47 Composite numbers are all other numbers. Composite numbers are numbers that have more than two factors. The composite numbers up to 50 are 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, 39, 40, 42, 44, 45, 46, 48, 49, 50, ‘The number 1 is neither prime nor composite. All positive numbers will either be prime or composite. Teacher We will use the sieve of Eratosthenes, to find all the prime numbers less than 100, . [Cross out every other number starting at 2. fevery sixth number. Why?) Cross out every seventh Inumber starting at 7 every eighth number. Why?) The explanation why you don't have to check numbers bigger than 10 is beyond this text. The numbers that are not crossed out are primes.
