A. Preliminary Activity
1. Prayer
Good morning class. Before we start (The students will stand up and pray)
may we all stand up and pray.
(Teacher will lead the prayer) Our Father who art in Heaven……

2. Greeting
Once again, good morning class. Good morning, teacher Rose!
So how are you doing today? (Different responses)

3. Checking of Attendance
Okay class, make a sound of your
favorite animals if your name is called.

Jane? Tweet, tweet, tweet!

Kyla? Meow, meow!
Chris? Meeee,meeee

Very good, everybody is present.

B. Priming
1. Recall
Before we begin our new lesson, let us
have first a recap on our previous
lesson. Our last lesson we have tackled was

Yes, jane? (Students will clap their hands)

Very good, let’s give an angel clap to

 Jane. Greatest common factor (GCF) is the
greatest number exactly in 2 or more
Now, who can share their idea. What is numbers.
GCF?
Yes Kyla, your raising hand.
(Students will clap 5 times)
Very well said, Kyla. Let’s give five claps
to Kyla.

This time, I want you to group

yourselves into 3, each group will find (Students will count 1 to 3)
the GCF of the given sets of number.
This activity will test everybody, if all of
you still remember how to get the GCF.
Okay, count off 1 to 3. Yes, teacher!

Are you now in your group? (Students will answer the given
problem)
(Teacher will provide activity sheet)

there any question? None, teacher!
3. Motivation
Okay class, who wants a prize?

All of you want prizes. (Students raise their hands)

Now, we will have an activity called
“decode the hidden message” by finding
the LCM of each pair of numbers.
(The same groupings as previous
activity)
Each group leader will paste the letter in
each decoder. (Students will go to their respective

Good job class, let’s give ourselves a
round of applause. (Students will clap their hands)

C. Activity
Those words you have formed are
connected in our lesson for today.
Who can guess for our topic for today?
I think our topic for today is about least
Very good! common multiple.

I know everybody is excited to learn,

are you ready?
Yes, teacher!
I have here another activity. Okay,
group yourselves into 2.

Count off 1 to 2.
(They count 1 to 2)
Have you already in your group?
Yes teacher!
I will give each group an activity sheet.
All member should participate and don’t
make noise. After answering, each
group will present the answer in front.
Am I clear? Yes teacher!
Group 1: answer the following:
1. What is the LCM of 8 and 3?
2. Find the LCM of 8 and 24. .
a) 24
b) 8
c) 4

Group2: Solve the given situation. (Each group will do their respective
Luke always drinks 8 oz of chocolate task.)
milk, while Matthew always drinks 12 oz
of milk. What is the least number of
glasses they could drink every day to
make sure that they get the same
amount of milk daily?

D. Analysis
Okay, time is up. Everybody (Each representative will go in front)
please, go back to your
respective seats. And the
representative of each group, (Group 1 will present their answer)
present your answer in front.
The LCM of 8 and 3 is 24.
In group 1, present your answer. The LCM of 8 and 24 is letter A.

Very good, group 1! (Group 2 will present their answer)

In group 2, present your answer. The least number of glasses they could
drink every day to make sure that they
Good job, group 2! get the same amount of milk daily is
24.
Thank you everyone for your
cooperation. Let us give (Students clap their hands)
ourselves a round of applause.

E. Abstraction
You all did great in our activity.
So now, let us go to the
discussion. What can you say in
finding the least common
multiple? Is it hard or easy? Some say hard, others say easy.

Your knowledge and skills in

giving the common multiple of a
given number have been
enhanced a while ago. This
knowledge and skills may help
you finding LCM of 2-4 number
using Continuous Division.

This time, let me ask you, based

on our previous activity, what is
common multiple? I think common multiple is a number
That’s right! that is a multiple of two or more
numbers.
Now, who can give common multiple of
3 and 4 are (0,12,24,….)

The common multiple of 3 and 4 are

That’s correct! 0,12,24…..
 What about least common
multiple (LCM), who can give an
idea about LCM?
Yes, Chris? Least common multiple (LCM) is
the smallest number (not zero)
Very good, Chris! of two number that is multiple
of both.
So now, since you already know
the idea of what is common
multiple and least common
multiple, let’s go to finding LCM
using Continuous Division
Method.

Example: Find LCM of 10 and 15

Step 1, please everybody read. Step 1: Arrange the given numbers

horizontally
So, class in a given set of numbers, how
will you write the numbers horizontally? 10 15

Very good!
Step 2, row one please read. Step 2: Write the common prime
divisor of the left-hand side and the
quotients below the numbers.
How will you write that one?
2 10 15
Very good! 5 15
Step 3, row 2 please read.
Repeat the process until there is no
common prime divisor.
Now, based on what you have written
in step 2, is there already no common No, teacher!
divisor?
2 10 15
Okay, very good. Now repeat the 5 15
process of step until there is no 1 3
common prime divisor.

Great job, class!

Step 4, please everybody read. Step 4: Multiply all common divisors to
get LCM.
So, by multiplying the common prime 2x5x1x3=30
divisor, what is now the LCM of 10 and
15? Teacher, the least common LCM of 10
and 15 is 30.
Great job, class!

Did you understand? Yes, teacher!

Is there any question? Clarification? None, teacher!
F. Application
Okay class, since there is no more
question and you all understand the
lesson, let’s have another activity.
(Same group as previous) (Students will go to their respective
group)
This activity is called “tap and Stamp
me”. Each group will choose a team
leader. When the team leaders raise a
set of numbers or problem, the member
will tap or stamp the correct answer
(LCM).

Group 1
1st set: 2, 4, 6
2nd set: The motorcycle run 8 km/h from
Javier to Barobo, while the bicycle run 4
km/h. What is the least of number Each group will do the activity.
speed they could run to make sure that
they get the same distance at the same
time.

Group 2
1st: 3, 6, 9
2nd set: The motorcycle run 8 km/h from
Javier to Barobo, while the bicycle run 4
km/h. What is the least of number
speed they could run to make sure that
they get the same distance at the same
time.

G. Generalization

I have here a crumpled paper contain

questions. All you have to do is to sing
“Once I caught a fish alive”, while you
are singing the crumpled paper will pass
to the other. If I say stop, the crumpled
paper will stop too. Then the student
who hold the crumpled paper will get
one and answer the question. Then Yes teacher!
repeat the process until the question will
be finished. The least common multiple
(LCM) of two number is the

is multiple of both.

Is it important to follow the steps in

getting LCM?

Yes, you right it is important to follow

the steps in getting LCM to get the
correct LCM.

You all did understand the lesson.

H. Evaluation
a. DIRECTION: Find the LCM using Continuous Division Method.

1) 8 24
2) 12 18 36
3) 12 20 28 40
b. DIRECTION: Solve the following problem.
1) John Gary goes swimming every 7 days and biking 8 days. He did both kinds
of exercises today. How many days from now will he go both swimming and
biking again?
2) The school cafeteria serves malunggay juice every 3 rd day and malunggay
pandesal every 4th day. If malunggay juice and malunggay pandesal are both
on today’s menu, how many days will it be before they are both on the menu
again?

IV. ASSIGNMENT
Solve the following problems.

1. Sliced cheese come packed 5 in a package. Pandesal come packed 6 in a

package. If we want one sliced cheese for each pandesal for a camp, with none
left over, what is the least amount of each we need to buy?

2. Starting at 8:00 a.m., a taxi stops at the street corner every 10 minutes. Also
