Multiples

Factors

A multiple of a number is the product (answer) of that


number and another number. Multiples can be found by
repeated addition.

A factor of a number is a number that divides evenly into


that number with a remainder of zero. In other
wordsnumbers that can be multiplied together where the
answer is that number.

Examples:
Multiples of
3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18
7: 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42
10: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60

Examples:
Factors of
12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

Common Multiples
All of the multiples that 2 or more numbers share.
Least Common Multiple (LCM)
Of all the common multiples, the least number is the LCM.
Example:

1x12=12
2x6=12
3x4=12
15: 1, 3, 5, 15
1x15=15
3x5=15

3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18
6: 6, 12, 18
Some of the common multiples of 3 and 6 are: 6, 12, and
18. The Least Common Multiple (LCM) is 6.

Common Factors
All of the factors that 2 or more numbers share.
Greatest Common Factor (GCF)
Of all the common factors, the greatest number is the GCF.
Example:
12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
15: 1, 3, 5, 15

GCF.
Adding and Subtracting Fractions with Unlike
Denominators
1. Write problem vertically
2. Find the least common multiple (LCM) of the
denominators
3. Change the fractions to an equivalent fraction with
using the LCM as the dominator
4. Add/Subtract the fractions with like denominators
5. Find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the
numerator and denominator
6. Divide by the GCF to find the simplest form of the
answer

6: 1, 2, 3, 6
8: 1, 2, 4, 8

Writing Fractions in Simplest Form

Mixed Numbers and Improper Fractions

List all of the factors of the numerator and denominator.


Divide the numerator and the denominator by the Greatest
Common Factor (GCF).

Mixed Number to an Improper Fraction

2x4= 8 + 3 = 11
Multiply the whole number by the denominator and add
the numerator this gives you the new numerator. The
denominator doesnt change.

6
6: 1, 2, 3, 6
12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

Improper Fraction to a Mixed Number


=
16 5 = 3 Remainder 1
Divide the numerator by the denominator. The whole
number in the answer is the whole number in the mixed
number the remainder is the numerator.
