■ CONCEPT SUMMARY & GUIDED NOTES: Let's build it together — Factors split things up; multiples count forward
1GCF = the biggest number that divides BOTH — use it to split into equal groups. LCM = the smallest number BOTH divide into — use it to find when cycles meet again.
  • A factor divides a number evenly, so factors answer questions about splitting a stock into equal groups. A multiple is where you land when you skip-count, so multiples answer questions about when repeating events line up. We'll walk through a worked example, try one together, then you'll try a few with hints right there when you need them.
2Worked Example — Watch me build the combo packs
  1. The store has 48 pencils and 36 notebooks. Every combo pack must hold the same number of each, with nothing left over — so the number of packs has to be a factor of BOTH quantities.
  2. Factors of 48: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48. Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36. Listing them in order is what makes the comparison easy.
  3. The numbers in both lists are the common factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12.
  4. The greatest of those is 12, so the GCF of 48 and 36 is 12. The manager can make 12 combo packs — each holding 48 ÷ 12 = 4 pencils and 36 ÷ 12 = 3 notebooks.
3Mathematical Word Bank
  • Find Factors and Multiples (Hallar factores y múltiplos) — Listing what divides a number evenly (its factors) and what it divides into evenly (its multiples), then finding what two numbers share.
  • Factor (Factor) — A whole number that divides another number evenly, with no remainder.
  • Multiple (Múltiplo) — The result of multiplying a number by 1, 2, 3, and so on — where you land when you skip-count by it.
  • Greatest common factor (GCF) (Máximo común divisor (MCD)) — The largest number that is a factor of two or more numbers. It answers “how many equal groups can I make?”
  • Least common multiple (LCM) (Mínimo común múltiplo (mcm)) — The smallest number that is a multiple of two or more numbers. It answers “when will these line up again?”
  • Factor pair (Par de factores) — Two factors that multiply to make a number. In a word problem, one is the number of groups and the other is the size of each group.
4Watch out
  • A common mistake is reaching for the wrong tool: listing FACTORS for a problem about repeating cycles. Ayasha's classes repeat every 6 and 8 weeks, so the weeks they land on are multiples — answering with the GCF of 2 claims a class that meets every 8 weeks happens in week 2. Use the size of the answer as a check: a GCF is never larger than the smaller number, and an LCM is never smaller than the larger one.
