On a sheet of paper, draw the following sieve of eratosthenes and number all of the rows from 1 to 10. Like this:
you know how the seive works?
Which two rows have the greatest number of primes in them? A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. 4 Select all that apply
um not really lol
you let 1 be, and 2 is your first prime, since all multiples of 2 are not prime; cross out all multiples of 2 go to your next nuber that aint marked out, the 3, and cross out all multiples of 3 since they aint primes
go to 5 afterwards and do the same, then 7 and by then you should be all marked out
or at least marked out enough that ther are no more left to try
wouldn't it be 4
there is some thrm that says after you reach a point that is no more than the square root of the number of boxes you have; its pointless to go further for some reason
i got know idea what id be, i havent drawn the bax they want lol
or box even ..... i think this keyboard goes funny after the laptop heats up
mine does that to:)
im sure the answer is rows 1 and 2; but that more of a gut feeling. primes tend to space out logarithically
right:)
