We'll stop here with this week's problem. I'm always open to new problem ideas to explore, and I'd love for anyone interested to join me on the adventure of making intriguing #math problems.

I saw this problem by Igor Tigerrr Geometerrr, and it has interested me enough that I decided to do this week's problems based on it. Here's the first one, just a bit of a general case to the original problem.

Here's the second problem inspired by Igor Tigerrr Geometerrr 's post, an extension into 3D.

Today's question: Let p be any prime greater than 3. How often will either of the integers p+1 or p-1 be divisible by 6?
#TryMathLive means I'm going to share my thinking here...
#MTBoS #iTeachMath #T3Learns #MathChat #RecreationalMath #ProblemSolving

Thus, for EVERY prime p > 3, either p-1 or p+1 must be divisible by 6.
How often? ALL THE TIME.

That was fun! Please share how you thought about it. And check out January Calendar of problems for more #ProblemSolving

Igor Tigerrr Geometerrr Fifth problem inspired by Igor Tigerrr Geometerrr 's post, if we start with the tetrahedra where they are in the last problem, but adjust the height so that they are barely touching, find this height in terms of the cube's side length.

Igor Tigerrr Geometerrr Third problem inspired by Igor Tigerrr Geometerrr 's post, using the same setup as yesterday's problem, the orange pyramid can move around a bit and have an overlapping area with the blue pyramid. Find the maximum area of that overlap.
