Lesson 3-5 Least Common Multiple
SWBAT: Find the LCM of two or more numbers by using various methods.
Definitions:
Multiple – __________________________________________________________
Least common multiple – ______________________________________________
Finding the Least Common Multiple:
Listing all the factors – To use this method, you just need to ________________
___________________________.
Ex: Find the LCM of 4 and 6
Multiples of 4: 4 , 8 , 12 , 16 , 20 , 24 , 28 , 32 , 36 , 40
Multiples of 6: 6 , 12 , 18 , 24 , 30 , 36 , 42 , 48 , 54 , 60
- You can see that both _____________ are in the lists of multiples, but 12 is
the _________ so it is the LCM.
Find the LCM of each example below:
①10:
12:
② 7:
10:
Shortcut – Just list the ________________________________ and see if the
_______________ goes into each multiple you can save some time and effort.
Challenge: The pennies in a jar can be shared equally by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or
10 friends, with no pennies left over. What is the least number of pennies in the
jar?
Lesson 3-5 Least Common Multiple
SWBAT: Find the LCM of two or more numbers by using various methods.
Using the factor tree and prime factorization:
To use the factor tree you have to write down any 2 factors to each number
below the numbers and circle each prime number.
Ex: Find the LCM of 8, 10 and 20.
Now we must ___________________________________.
8: 2 • 2 • 2
10: 5 • 2
20: 5 • 2 • 2
After we make the list, find the __________________
of each number and __________ them.
The biggest group of 2’s is ______________ so I will include all of them, and the
biggest group of ____ would be in either the 10 row or 20 row so I will include
one of them. I now have ______________ and that would be 40.
If every number is _________, you just have to ____________ the numbers
together!
① Find the LCM of 9 and 21
Find the LCM using any method you prefer:
① 4 and 9
② 8 and 14
③ 6, 9, 15
④ 2, 3, 5, 7, 11
Challenge: The pennies in a jar can be shared equally by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or
10 friends, with no pennies left over. What is the least number of pennies in the
jar?
