Prime Factorization, GCF 5

Here are the steps to find the LCM of 4 and 10: 1) Write both numbers as products of their prime factors: 4 = 2 * 2 10 = 2 * 5 2) The LCM is the product of all the prime factors, including repeated ones. So the LCM of 4 and 10 is 2 * 2 * 5 = 20. Therefore, the LCM of 4 and 10 is 20.

(ANSWER KEY)

Common Factor Activity


Find the common factor of the terms of
each algebraic expressions.

1) 24x + 4xy 2) 15x3 + 3x


24x = 2⋅2⋅2⋅3⋅x 15x = 3⋅5⋅x⋅x⋅x
4y = 2⋅2 x⋅y 3x = 3 ⋅x
2⋅2 ⋅ x 3 ⋅x

Answer: 4x Answer: 3x

3) 16x 2 y - 40y 4) -27y 4 + (-15x)

16x 2 y = 2⋅8 ⋅x⋅x⋅y -27y 4 = -1⋅3⋅ ⋅y⋅y⋅y


-40y = 8⋅5 ⋅y -15x = 9 -1⋅3 ⋅5⋅x⋅y
8 ⋅y -1⋅3

Answer: 8y Answer: -3

5) -22y 2 + 11y 3 6) 14x 3y - 29x3y

-22y2 = -1⋅2⋅11⋅y⋅y 14x3y = 14 ⋅x⋅x⋅x⋅


11y3 = 11⋅y⋅y⋅y 29x y =
