Four fours. Four fours is a mathematical puzzle, the goal of which is to find the simplest mathematical expression for every whole number from 0 to some maximum, using only common mathematical symbols and the digit four. No other digit is allowed. Most versions of the puzzle require that each expression have exactly four fours, but some ...
Cycles of the unit digit of multiples of integers ending in 1, 3, 7 and 9 (upper row), and 2, 4, 6 and 8 (lower row) on a telephone keypad. Figure 1 is used for multiples of 1, 3, 7, and 9. Figure 2 is used for the multiples of 2, 4, 6, and 8. These patterns can be used to memorize the multiples of any number from 0 to 10, except 5.
For example, 4 multiplied by 3, often written as and spoken as "3 times 4", can be calculated by adding 3 copies of 4 together: 3 × 4 = 4 + 4 + 4 = 12. {\displaystyle 3\times 4=4+4+4=12.} Here, 3 (the multiplier ) and 4 (the multiplicand ) are the factors , and 12 is the product .
Product (mathematics) In mathematics, a product is the result of multiplication, or an expression that identifies objects (numbers or variables) to be multiplied, called factors. For example, 21 is the product of 3 and 7 (the result of multiplication), and is the product of and (indicating that the two factors should be multiplied together).
Lagrange's four-square theorem, also known as Bachet's conjecture, states that every natural number can be represented as a sum of four non-negative integer squares. [ 1] That is, the squares form an additive basis of order four. where the four numbers are integers. For illustration, 3, 31, and 310 in several ways, can be represented as the sum ...
Square number. Square number 16 as sum of gnomons. In mathematics, a square number or perfect square is an integer that is the square of an integer; [ 1] in other words, it is the product of some integer with itself. For example, 9 is a square number, since it equals 32 and can be written as 3 × 3 .
The sum of the ones digit, double the tens digit, four times the hundreds digit, and eight times the thousands digit is divisible by 16. 157,648: 7 × 8 + 6 × 4 + 4 × 2 + 8 = 96 17: Subtract 5 times the last digit from the rest. (Works because 51 is divisible by 17.) 221: 22 − 1 × 5 = 17. Add 12 times the last digit to the rest.
The Chinese multiplication table consists of eighty-one terms. It was often called the nine-nine table, or simply nine-nine, because in ancient times, the nine nine table started with 9 × 9: [ 2] nine nines beget eighty-one, eight nines beget seventy-two ... seven nines beget sixty three, etc. two ones beget two.
