Earliest recommended Year group: Year 12.
Based on the nRich activitiy. An algebra task thinly disguised as a probability question. Answers are different but are consecutive triangular numbers.
This is from the “Something in Common” collection of resources by John Burke. They allow consolidation of key skills, prevent students from copying each other (as all the questions are different), make marking and assessing easy for the teacher (as all the answers are the same!), and provide a lovely extra challenge for students as they try to figure out exactly what is going on!
