A1 For locker 6, for example, 1 opens it, 2 closes it, 3 opens it, 6 closes it #TEDEdChat

Lisaqt314 May 16 @ 6:06 PM EDT

A1 If person one opens every first locker, person two opens every second locker, person three 1/2 #TEDEdChat

A1: Isn't it odd that not all numbers have an even number of factors? #TEDEdChat

Lisaqt314 May 16 @ 6:08 PM EDT

A1 changes the status of every 3rd locker, that is if it's opened, they close it & if it's closed they open it... 2/2 #TEDEdChat

Skymazef3 May 16 @ 6:08 PM EDT

#TEDedchat A1 Being a busy teacher, I did plunge onto the end. I like ends of stories. So factors tell us if locker is shut 😃

Nice job! This often takes students a while to formulate when solving the problem in class :) #TEDEdChat

maddywise96 May 16 @ 6:23 PM EDT

There's a number, when multiplied by itself, will equal the locker number. EX:16: 1,2,4,8,16. Odd number, opened locker. 4x4=16. #TEDEdChat

correct again! #TEDEdChat

In reply to @OGav2017

Lisaqt314 May 16 @ 6:36 PM EDT

A3 Is there another question that could be asked about the locker problem? Another code she could have figured out? #TEDEdChat

maddywise96 May 16 @ 6:38 PM EDT

A3 The code was in lockers touched only twice, meaning they only have two factors(prime). #TEDEdchat

Lisaqt314 May 16 @ 6:39 PM EDT

yep, great explanation #TEDEdChat

In reply to @maddywise96

RTBCoaching May 16 @ 6:42 PM EDT

A3: One is the loneliest number until it's paired with the other factor of a prime number! #TEDEdChat

Lisaqt314 May 16 @ 6:50 PM EDT

A4 Students can be lockers! Line them up and they can face forward when open and face backward when closed. Other ideas? #TEDEdChat

Lisaqt314 May 16 @ 6:53 PM EDT

A4 very fun with the bridge riddle https://t.co/meShSwJ81p to simulate with kids, too! #TEDEdChat

RTBCoaching May 16 @ 6:55 PM EDT

A4: Take them out in the hallways and have them put sticky notes on the open lockers and take the notes off otherwise. #TEDEdChat
