Finding Common Ground

1. What is a prime number? Give two examples.

A prime number is a number greater than 1 that has only two factors: 1 and itself. Examples include 2 and 7. (2 points: definition and examples) A strong exam answer should also explain how this point connects with Definition of prime numbers and their properties, include one supporting event from the chapter, and end with a clear sentence showing the lesson learned.

2. How can students understand Definition of prime numbers and their properties easily?

Students can first listen to the related audio explanation, then revise the key points and solve practice questions based on this topic. A strong exam answer should also explain how this point connects with Definition of prime numbers and their properties, include one supporting event from the chapter, and end with a clear sentence showing the lesson learned.

3. How can Definition of prime numbers and their properties be used in exams?

Students can mention the meaning, one example from the chapter, and one clear conclusion to write a complete answer. A strong exam answer should also explain how this point connects with Definition of prime numbers and their properties, include one supporting event from the chapter, and end with a clear sentence showing the lesson learned.

4. Find the prime factorisation of 90 using the division method.

90 ÷ 2 = 45, 45 ÷ 3 = 15, 15 ÷ 3 = 5, and 5 is prime. So, 90 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 5. (2 points: correct division steps and final factorisation) A strong exam answer should also explain how this point connects with Concept of prime factorisation as breaking numbers into prime factors, include one supporting event from the chapter, and end with a clear sentence showing the lesson learned.
