10. Rich Task – The Mystery Number 🔍

I am thinking of a number. Here are my clues:

• When you multiply my number by 4, you get a number between 80 and 100.

• When you divide my number by 3, there is no remainder.

• My number is greater than 20.

What could my number be? Can you find all the possible answers? Show your working.

My number(s) could be: _________________________________________

How do you know you have found all the possibilities? Explain below.

📋 Answer Key (Teacher Use Only)

Part 1:

1. 47 × 10 = 470

2. 360 ÷ 100 = 3.6

3. 25 × 1000 = 25,000

4. 84,000 ÷ 1000 = 84

Part 2:

5. 23,456 × 4 = 93,824

6. 33 × 24 = 792

7. 5,432 ÷ 7 = 776 remainder 0

Part 3:

8. 32 × 9 = 288 books total. 288 ÷ 8 = 36 boxes

9. True. 456 ÷ 6 = 76, and 228 ÷ 3 = 76. Accept clear reasoning showing both divisions equal 76, or that halving both the dividend and divisor keeps the quotient the same.

10. The number must be between 21 and 25 (since 4 × 21 = 84 and 4 × 25 = 100). Numbers in that range divisible by 3: 21 and 24. Accept either or both with clear working. Award bonus marks for students who identify both solutions and explain their reasoning systematically.
