Sieve Use the Sieve of Eratosthenes to find prime numbers.
Level 1 - Simple subtraction. Example: 5 - 12
Level 2 - Adding to a negative number. Example: -7 + 9
Level 3 - Addition and Subtraction. Example: -10 + -2
Level 4 - Multiplication. Example: -3 x 2
Level 5 - Division. Example: -10 ÷ 5
Level 6 - Substitution. Example: If a=-3 and b=-7 evaluate 7a - 8b - 6
Level 7 - Mixed. Example: A mixed set of word problems
