Have you ever thought about the mathematics of beading?

This is a game that has been around for hundreds of years! Can you master the game of NIM?

This problem requires children to think about factors and multiples and, in particular, common factors, but it is not necessary for them to have met this term prior to having a go at the task.

This is a really interesting problem from NRICH. Please visit their site to find many more rich and engaging math tasks.

We often see growth pattern tasks that focus on numerical questions like “How many squares are in the 100th case?” or “How many squares are in the nth case?”

How do you see the pattern growing?
