Math Curiosity: Legendre’s Conjecture

🔓 This is an unlocked sample! Byrdseed.TV is open for new memberships through May 31st, 2024. Join today!
 

Objective

Students will work with primes and perfect squares to investigate Legendre's Conjecture.

In this mathematical curiosity, we’ll explore a pattern discovered by Legendre: between every perfect square, we seem to always find at least one prime number. Is this always true? Mathematicians believe so, yet haven’t been able to prove it!
