4. Oneofthewaystocheckifanumberisdivisibleby11isbyalternatelysubtractingandadding
itsdigitsasfollows
Consider the digits in 121. Since 1 - 2 + 1 = 0 we can say that 121 is divisible by 11
For the number 16918, the digits combine as 1 - 6 + 9 - 1 + 8 = 11, which is a
multiple of 11 so 16918 is divisible by 11
However for 147, 1 - 4 + 7 = 4, which is not in the 11 times table, so 147 is NOT
divisible by 11.
Neither is 3276 as 3 - 2 + 7 - 6 = 2, which is also not a multiple of 11
Byapplyingthisprocessofsubtractingandadding,answerthefollowingquestions

S 2 = 2 0 x d where S 2 = S x S
So after dropping 5m, S 2 = 20 x 5 = 100 and therefore the speed would be 10m/s
as 10 x 10 = 100.

7. Ina“prod sequence”,anumberinthesequenceistheproductofsomeoftheprevious
terms.So in a “2 prod sequence” we start with 2 numbers and then each number
that follows after is the product of the previous 2 numbers.
For example 1, 2, 2, 4, 8 ……..
Similarly, where we start with the three numbers 1, 2 and 3 then a “3 prod sequence”
would be
1, 2, 3, 6, 36, 648 ……

Forexample:
becauseinternationalrulesstatethattheflagmaynotbeallonecolourandtherulesalso
statethattheyareonlyallowedtopickfromacertainnumberofcolours.
The country always chooses what colour to put in the left section first. When
calculating how many possible choices that they have for their flag; the following
system is adopted. So with seven possible colours the choices would be
Which gives a total number of possible flags = 7 x 6 = 42

If the country wants to make a flag with three colours, the rules state that
they may not have two sections of the same colour next to each other.
If there were 4 choices of colour the calculation would be:
which gives a total number of possible flags = 4 x 3 x 3 = 36
