The Collatz Conjecture says if you start with any number and follow these steps, you'll always end up at 1

1. If the number is even, divide it by 2.


2. If the number is odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1.
3. Let's check for 100:
4. Start: 100 (even) → 100 ÷ 2 = 50
5. 50 (even) → 50 ÷ 2 = 25

A2. Step 1: Understand the problem

 We need 5-digit numbers between 35,000 and 75,000 where all digits are odd.

 The odd digits are: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9.

Step 2: Find the largest and smallest numbers

 Smallest number: Start with the smallest odd digits for each place:

o Tens of thousands place: 3 (minimum to stay above 35,000)

o Remaining places: 1 (smallest odd digit)

o Smallest number = 31,111.


 Largest number: Start with the largest odd digits for each place:

o Tens of thousands place: 7 (maximum to stay below 75,000)

o Remaining places: 9 (largest odd digit)

o Largest number = 79,999.

Step 3: Find the number closest to 50,000

 The closest number must be between 49,999 and 50,000.

 A valid number below 50,000 is 49,999 because all digits are odd and it’s closest to 50,000.

Final Answer:

 Largest number: 79,999

 Smallest number: 31,111

 Closest to 50,000: 49,999

Chapter – Prime table

A2. (1) HCF of two consecutive even numbers:

Let the two consecutive even numbers be n and n + 2.

 The HCF of two consecutive even numbers is always 2 because they differ by 2 (the smallest
prime factor of even numbers is always 2).

So, the HCF of two consecutive even numbers is 2.

(2) LCM of two prime numbers:

Let the two prime numbers be p1 and p2.

 The LCM of two prime numbers is the product of the two numbers because prime numbers have
no common factors other than 1.

So, the LCM of two prime numbers p1 and p2 is p1 × p2.

For example:

 If we take 3 and 5 (prime numbers),


LCM = 3 × 5 = 15.

A3. Let the number of 3-pointers be x and the number of 2-pointers be y.

We are given:

 Each 3-pointer is worth 3 points.


 Each 2-pointer is worth 2 points.
 The total score is 15 points.

The equations based on the given points are:

3x+2y=15

Also, since these are counts of shots, both x and y must be non-negative integers.

Step-by-Step:

From the equation 3x+2y=15

 Solving for x:

3x=15−2y, x=15−2y/3
15−2y should be divisible by 3.

 Testing values for y:

3(5−y)=15

If y=5

3x+2(5)=15 ⟹ 3x=5

Solution:

 3-pointers: 5
 2-pointers: 5

The player made 5 three-pointers and 5 two-pointers.
