Highest Common Factors and Lowest Common Multiples

Highest common factor and lowest common multiple – The first example finds the highest common factor of 6 and 15 by listing all the factors of each number, highlighting all the common factors and indicating the highest common factor. A similar technique is used to find the lowest common multiple of 6 and 15....

Highway Link Design

This activity challenges students to design, and agree on an optimal route for, a village bypass, subject to the Highways Agency constraints for road design. Students use the provided software or physical resources and measure lengths of lines and curves, fine tune cost-benefit trade-offs, interpret data, convert...

Highways of the oceans - Sea currents and the connection to climate

In this resource from the European Space Agency, students use a multimedia module to learn about sea currents, the highways of the oceans, and how they are important for understanding local climates. Through a hands-on activity students investigate the causes of ocean currents. The final activity use satellite...

Hikorski Triples

Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics.

This presentation demonstrates how the interesting idea of Hikorski triples was developed from writing a GCSE Equations worksheet in 2002. The triples are identified as (p, q, pq+1/p+q).

The activity is designed to...

Hilbre Island

In this Bowland assessment task, students are required to plan a walking trip to Hilbre Island. Students are given information about when it is safe to walk to the island, how long it takes to walk there and the times of the high tides on the proposed dates of the trip.

Hip Stars

Scientists at the University of Oxford are investigating the link between sporting activity in young people and the development of osteoarthritis. In very active people, bony lesions can form on the hip joint which increases their risk of developing the condition.

In this activity students apply what they...

Hire a coach

This resource is part of a collection of Nuffield Maths resources that explore Algebra and Maths. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in Higher Level GCSE and Level 2 Functional Mathematics.
