Magic seven

Pages 3-9 | Received 16 Dec 1986, Published online: 09 Jul 2006
 

Abstract

This article introduces the intriguing properties of the integer seven through three brain‐teaser type puzzles, which teachers might like to try with pupils as ‘end‐of‐term’ light relief. It is hoped that the puzzles will spark interest that may kindle into some serious thought, perhaps for a holiday project.
