2
a Student’s answer, e.g. 1 and 1, 2 and 2, 3 and 3
b The inputs and their outputs are identical. The ×2 and the ÷2 cancel each other
out, as does the +5 and the –5
c Student’s answer e.g. ×5, –2, +2, ÷5
3
a 2
b Yes
c Student’s answer, e.g. ‘Think of a number, then add three and double the result.’
Gives 2(n + 3) or 2n + 6. ‘Then subtract the number you first thought of’ leaves us
with n + 6. ‘then subtract 4’ leaves us with n + 2. ‘Then finally subtract the number
you first thought of again’ leaves us with 2. So whatever number we choose for n
we will always finish with a total of 2. Or 2(n + 3) – n – 4 – n = 2
