Factors and multiples problem

This is my voice thread that I have made with Me, Ben & Hank. It is about the factors and multiples problem that we had to work out. I found this work interesting because I haven't seen a problem like this also at the start I there was "triangular number" I wasn't sure of it at first but I remembered what it meant later on. My next step is to get more puzzles like this but gradually getting harder.

Hand-Shakes Solution

We have been working on a problem about how many hand-shakes there would be if some mathematicians met and shook hands with each other once. I found it tricky before my teacher gave me a clue to use algebra. My next step is to find more problems like this to challenge myself.

Making and Breaking Popplet

I was making and breaking the number 20 and putting it in to a popplet.  I think it was easy because it was a very easy number to make and break.  It was easy because I already had a lot of equations in my head.  My next step is to make it a higher number to make and break.
