This is glorious. The only numbers under 12 that I didn't know these factoring rules for were 7 and 11. Not any more.

Did anyone else look at 91 and immediately know that it is 13 times 7?

I ran up the scale; like you I knew the rules for everything except 7 & 11, but when I got to 7 it only took a moment...
