Here is a game I stole from Marty Weissman:
You start at zero on the number line. You are allowed "hop" forward or backwards by $6$ and "jump" forwards or backwards by $10$. Which numbers can you reach? Are there any numbers you cannot reach?
Variations:
- Change $6$ and $10$ to other numbers.
- Use "hop", "skip", and "jump" (3 numbers) instead of just two.
- Now you are only allowed to hop or jump forwards, never backwards. How does that change the numbers are you able to reach?
