Number Visuals

Here are our Number multiples.

We coloured the multiples of 3 green which were triangles, The multiples of 5 which were stars that we coloured yellow, The circles that were all odd Numbers and the squares that were in the multiples of four were squares which were coloured light blue.

We coloured the prime numbers pink because they can only be divided by themselves and one.
