One Hundred Problems Involving the Number 100: A Collection of Problems to Celebrate NCTM’s First Century

Book Description

Share the wonder, joy, beauty—and fun—of mathematics with these 100 problems.

The problems in One Hundred Problems Involving the Number 100 celebrate the “Goldilocks” charm of 100—a number not too small, not too large, but just right to challenge students without intimidating them. It’s used in myriad ways within the problems: as an exponent, product, area, or perimeter; a constant in an equation; the number of items in a series or sequence; or as a physical value, such as a stack of 100 coins, a deck with 100 cards, or a jug that holds 100 ounces. There is something magical about the number 100, and these problems aim to capture some of that magic. But no matter how 100 is used, each problem is meant to spark curiosity and motivate students (and their teachers) to want to solve it.

书名：涉及数字100的一百个问题：庆祝NCTM第一个世纪的问题集

Joy，分享数学的奇妙–也是有趣的–和这100个问题。

涉及数字100的100个问题中的问题颂扬了100的“金发姑娘”魅力–这个数字不是太小，也不是太大，而是恰到好处地挑战学生，而不是吓倒他们。它在问题中有多种用法：指数、乘积、面积或周长；方程式中的常量；一系列或序列中的项数；或作为物理值，如一叠100枚硬币、一副100张牌或一只可容纳100盎司的罐子。数字100有一些神奇之处，这些问题旨在捕捉其中的一些神奇之处。但无论如何使用100，每个问题都意味着激发好奇心，激励学生(和他们的老师)想要解决它。
