Números primos: uma abordagem educacional

Abstract

In this study we attempted to take a new approach in the construction of primes in the form of facing the natural numbers, and differentiating compounds and prime numbers and show their distribution over the set of natural numbers with the improvement of our purpose students of primary and secondary education in the study of the numbers set by presenting them in the form of sub-assemblies and fission products finally emptying into the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra (TFA). Initially making a historical summary then an introduction where we emphasize the principle of good order, divisibility, congruence, MDC, MMC, definition of prime numbers and composite numbers and also the TFA. Soon after divided the work into five chapters in which we treat the infinity of prime numbers, applications, how to find prime numbers, how to tell if a number is prime and for the end work done with the students of Colegio Militar de Manaus with the math club there existing.
