The value of information. How large should the primes p and q be in the RSA coding scheme? Of course, if you pick ridiculously large ones, then the product of the two would be impossible to factor from a practical point of view. Do you really need the primes to be that large? What if you’re just sending a little love message to a special friend? Do you think the CIA will want to break your code? What determines the size of the primes you need?

- A commuter must travel from Ajax to Barrie and back every day. Four roads join the two cities. The commuter likes to vary the trip as much as posible, so she alwaysleaves and returns by different roads. In how many different ways can she make the round-trip?arrow_forwardFactor by grouping: ab+7b+8a+56 .arrow_forwardEllie is putting together a balloon bouquet for her mom's birthday party. She wants to fill the bouquet with 48 balloons, and wants to make sure that the colors are perfectly divided into equal groups so that these are the same amount of every color. How many different ways can Ellie divide the balloons into equal groups such that each group contains the same number of balloons? The answer will require finding all the factors of 48.arrow_forward
