My brain has just fried trying to explain factors to DD1. I know she's not stupid but she gets stressed and then says she can't do it when I know she can!

Welcome back cardiff

We had all sorts of thoughts.

Hope the decluttering goes ok

Dinner eaten and pots washed up, on draining board, draining.

Hoover round downstairs, swept the kitchen floor

and 'won' a fat quarter on the well known auction site!!!

Told ya!

Thought they were gonna fall out with me ...seems some of 'em have quite taken to you!

Email done - hurrah! Fortunately, I had more facts and bits and pieces stored on my hard drive than I'd realised! It's amazing what you can find when you dig deep.

I'm now off to slurp a well earned glass of wine :beer: and consider defrosting something for dinner tonight.

Flying will just have to go hang - oh bottoms! Just realised I need to put the BM on if I'm to make sandwiches for lunch at to work tomorrow - will go do that now!

Factors - any two numbers which multiplied together make the number you are trying to find the factors of...

12

1 x 12 = 12 therefore 1 and 12 are factors of 12
2 x 6 = 12
3 x 4 = 12

so the factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12

OMG... I could write a song about that one!!! My DD1 is just the same. I wish you could buy a confidence pill. (well, a legal one for children!)
