Name Date Class, Greatest Common Factor Reteach The greatest common factor, or GCF, is the largest number that is the factor of two or more numbers. To find the GCF, first write the factors of each number. Example Find the GCF of 18 and 24. Solution Write the factors of 18 and 24. Highlight the /argest number that is common to both lists of factors. Factors of 18: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 18 Factors of 24: 1, 2,3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 The GCF of 18 and 24 is 6. This process works the same way for more than two numbers. Find the GCF. 1, 32 and 48 2. 18 and 36 3. 28, 56, and 84 4, 30, 45, and 75 The distributive principle can be used with the GCF to rewrite a sum of two or more numbers. Example Solution Write 30 +70 as the product of the GCF of 30 and 70 and a sum. Step 1 Find the GCF of 30 and 70. Factors of 30: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, and 30 Factors of 70: 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, and 70. ‘The GCF is 10. Step 2 Write “10 x (? + 2).” To find the questions marks, divide: 30 + 10 = 3; 70+10=7 Step 3 So, 30 + 70 can be written as 10x (3 +7). Rewrite each sum as a product of the GCF and a new sum. 5.9+15= 6. 100 + 350= 7.12+18+21= ‘orginal canent Copyright © by Houghton fin Harcourt Actions and changes to ie orginal content ae fhe responsiblity of he tuto. 23 Name Date Class, Least Common Multiple Reteach The smallest number that is a multiple of two or more numbers is called the least common multiple (LCM) of those numbers. To find the least common multiple of 3, 6, and 8, list the multiples for each number and put a circle around the LCM in the three lists. Multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 (24) Multiples of 6:6, 12, 18, Multiples of 8: 8, 16. So 24 Is the LCM of 3, 6, and 8. List the multiples of each number to help you find the least common multiple of each group. 1. 2and9 2. 4and6 3. 4 and 10 Multiples of 2: Multiples of 4: Multiples of 4: Multiples of 9: Multiples of 6: Multiples of 10: LCM: Lom: LCM: 4. 2,5, and6 5. 3,4, and 9 6. 8, 10, and 12 Multiples of 2: Multiples of 3: Multiples of 8: Multiples of 5: Multiples of 4: Multiples of 10: Multiples of 6: Multiples of 9: Multiples of 12: Solve. 7.
