Equations

Equation’s variations
(EQ)
1. Factorial- Allows you to multiply the number it is used on and all the numbers lower than it.
-it needs no cube.
-can only be used two times.
-can be used on the goal.
-shown on paper by putting a “!” by the number.

2. 0wild- Allows you to use zero as any number from 0-9.
-if you use it all the zeros needs to be the same number.
-can use as many zeros as you can.
-the opponent doesn’t say what the zero turns into; you can all use the zero as something else.
-you need to put 0wild under the number the zero turned into.


3. Side Ways- Allows you to make a number a fraction like if you use SW 8 = 1/8 (the 8 is suppose to have a SW under it).
-you always need to put SW under the number you are doing sideways on.
-you can do SW in your solution and you can set a goal with SW by putting the cube sideways.
4. Smallest Prime (also known as Next Prime) - Allows you to turn a number into the next prime (after the number).
- Smallest Prime’s cube is a multiply cube to put it on your paper you got to put the multiply cube in front of the number you are doing Smallest Prime on.
5. Greatest Common Factor (GCF) – Allows you to make the GCF of two numbers.
- Greatest Common Factor’s cube is a power cube (star).
- You have to put GCF under the stars you want to be GCF.


6. Least Common Multiple (LCM) - Allows you to make the LCM of two numbers.
-it needs a root to work.
-the way you write it is an upside down root.
-you have to write LCM under the root if you want it to be a LCM cube.
7. Plus = Average- Makes all the plus cubes in to average cubes.
-YOU HAVE TO USE IT.
8. Upside Down- Allows you to put a cube upside down to show that that number is negative instead of positive.
-you need to write upside down to the number you are applying the number to.
-Ex. 8 upside down would be -8
-you can use as many upside down you want.
-you can use it on a goal and solution.


9. Multiple Operation ______ (MOP) - allows you to use as many of the _______ as you want
-the ______ has to be a *,-,+ or /
-only one kind can be a _____.
-needs one actual cube of the operation you are using MOP on or it won’t work.
