Welcome to the third of our Medium level Eleven Plus maths quizzes on Properties of Numbers. If you have played the previous ones then you should know some of these, like multiples, primes and squares. This quiz gives you more opportunity to practise and cement your knowledge of different terms.
Here are some things to remember:
Okay then, let’s get to it! Take your time and think about the answers before you choose which one you think is correct. If you have been practising with our other quizzes, this one should be a doddle!

They are all whole even numbers and multiples of 8. Prime numbers are not divisible by any number except one and themselves, so the only even prime number is 2

30 is not a square number: 5 x 5 = 25, 6 x 6 = 36
4 is not a multiple of 8, though 8 is a multiple of 4: 4 x 2 = 8 An odd number plus an even number equals an odd number. 7 is a prime number because it is only divisible by 1 and by 7: 7 x 1 = 7, 1 x 7 = 7 |
A square number is formed by multiplying another number with itself : 10 x 10 = 100

Negative plus negative equals negative:
For example: -2 + -2 = -4 |
Numbers in the 8 times table all end with an even number or with 0

As 9 is an odd number, its multiples can end with any number. Go through your 9 times table and you’ll see this is true

When we multiply two odd numbers (3 is an odd number) the result is always an odd number – try it yourself to see

When we multiply two even numbers (6 is an even number) the result is always an even number – try it yourself to see

3 x 6 = 18 BUT 18 is NOT divisible by 12. If you want to show that a statement is not always true, find one example that shows it is wrong - like we did here

4, 6 and 12 go into 24 exactly:
4 x 6 = 24, 6 x 4 = 24 and 12 x 2 = 24 - but that means 24 is a multiple of those numbers. Only 48 is a multiple of 24 because 24 x 2 = 48
