... The third type of exception is due to mutants or hybrids created artificially. Nowadays roses come with many different petals because they have been created artificially. Make a guess how many petals a wild rose (i.e. not a hybrid) has. Or you can search the Internet for more information. Hint: It i ...

... 3) What is the largest three-digit number that is divisible by both 7 and by 8? If the number is divisible by 7 and 8, the number must be divisible by 56. By looking at groups of 56 you can try to get as close to 1000 as possible. Ten 56's make 560, five 56's would be 280. A total of fifteen 56's wo ...
