POW – Board Game

John and Ron are playing a game on this game board. The players toss a marker onto the board and receive points according to these rules.  

·        Even numbers are worth 1 point.

·        Odd numbers are worth 2 points.

·        Prime numbers are worth 3 points.

·        Multiples of 3 are worth 4 points.

·        Multiples of 5 are worth 5 points.

John’s first marker landed on 7. He received 2 points because 7 is an odd number, 3 more points because it is prime, for a total of 5 points.

Ron landed on 12. He received a total of 5 points, 1 point for being even, and 4 points for being a multiple of 3.
