A game wheel shows the numbers 1 to 36. Figure
out on which 2-digit number Lucy has landed given
the following facts: The number is divisible by 3. The sum of the digits in this number lies between
4 and 8. It is an odd number. When the digits in this number are multiplied
together, the total lies between 4 and 8.

Lucy has landed on 15. Make a list of numbers 1-
36 that are divisible by 3. Cross out all that are
even. This leaves 9, 15, 21, 27, and 33. 9, 21,
and 27 have a “sum of digits” less than 4 or more
than 8. But, 1 x 5 = 5 and 3x 3 = 9. STRATEGY:
Make a list and search for a pattern.
