Arithmetic Boiled Down

THE difference between the cube of any num-

product of three consecutive numbers, and is
also Invisible by g. Thus, the cube of is o.
The difference is 60, which is the product of
3x4x5; and which also contains ten times
A prime number is one that cannot be
divided by any other number except itself
and 1, without leaving a remainder, such as
3, S, or 7. If any prime number is Invisible by

squares of and respectively; and 90 is the
sum of 4 and as, the squares of and re-
spectively.
The sum of the odd numbers beginning with

square of the number of terms added. Thus
the sum of 1, 8, S, 7, and 9 is IS. We used five
terms, and the square root of IS is S. 1t thus
will be easy to tell the sum of any number of
odd numbers in succession if the first term is

If you wish to tell the number that some one

this method: Tell him to think of any num-

multiply by (235); add S (24o); multiply
by 10 (2,4oo); subtract 100 (2,3oo); ask for
the result; strike off the two last figures; and
obtain 23.
variation of this is seen in the following
method of telling when a persons birthday

Der of the month in which he was born, say
January %; multiply it by (2); add %;
multiply by so $500; add the day OF birth,
say I (3sD; subtract 2so (IoI) The last

In Squares and Cubes
IF the number is multiplied by itself, the
product is l. If this product is multiplied
by I, the product is I. This is simply another
way of saying that the square and the cube of
are I. 1t may be surprising to learn that there
are two other expressions which when used
three times as factor will give the product 1.
That is, the cube root of has three different
forms. The ones which at first do not look as
though they would give I as product when
used three times as factor are these:

curious thing about these numbers is that if
either of them is multiplied by the other one,
the result is the other one
Choose any four consecutive numbers, as
50, 81, 81, and So. Multiply them together,
and the product may be divided by "a, This
will be found to hold true for any four con-
secutive numbers we may choose, unless one
of the numbers is "a or a multiple of "a, such
as 48, II, 90, etc
In the same way any five consecutive num-
bers multiplied together may be divided by
100, unless one of the numbers is 40 or a
multiple of 40.
If any two odd numbers, such as and 9,
are squared, the difference between their
squares will always be divisible by 8. Thus
the square of is 40 and the square of is 81.
The difference between 81 and 40 is 81, which
