Introduction

Number Grid. Using the following rule: find the product of the top left and bottom right number in a square. Do the same thing with the bottom left and top right. Calculate the difference. Investigate. To start this investigation I used a number grid from which I could take a box out and use to find the differences. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 ...read more.

For each example I will show that I worked out the differences both by using the existing maths I knew and by using a formula, which I devised.

    = 160 When finding the general formula for any number (n), both answers begin with the equation n2+44n, which signifies that they can be manipulated easily. Because the second answer has +160 at the end, it demonstrates that no matter what number is chosen to begin with (n), a difference of 160 will always be present.
