Prime Numbers - a physical proof that they are 6N+/-1 after 3
Description
This Object Has 6 Sides And Counts From 1 To 60 From Top To Bottom. The Prime Numbers Are Cut All The Way Through The Wall So They Stand Out. Upon Inspection, One Will Notice That The 1 Column And The 5 Column Have All Of The Prime Numbers After 3. Why Is That? Hopefully This Is Useful For Teachers, Students And Math Enthusiasts. It Is Also A Useful Bucket For Knickknacks, Pens, Pencils, Tools, And Other Junk On My Desk. (Prime Junk). Discussion Points On Primes: - Primes And Remainders Go Together Like Cause And Effect. Is This True? - Heard Of Twin Primes? (Primes Are Often Separated By Two) Can The 6N+/-1 Rule Help You See How That Is True? (If You Don'T Count 2 And 3) - Are There An Infinite Number Of Primes? - If Primes Are Infinite Then What Percent Of All Numbers To Infinity Are Prime? And Finally: - Can You Prove That Every Even Number Greater Than 2 Is The Sum Of Two Primes? If You Can, You'Ve Solved The Infamous Goldbach'S Conjecture. This Is One Of Math'S Greatest Unsolved Puzzles. I'M Betting That A 3D Printing Junkie Will Solve It - If Only We Can Get The Perfect Fidget Toy To Help Us Focus.
