Hint Fractions Return to Table of Contents Slide 5 / 305 Slide 6 / 305 Greatest Common Factor 1 Find the GCF of 18 and 44. Pull Pull We can use prime factorization to find the greatest common factor (GCF). 1. Factor the given numbers into primes. 2. Circle the factors that are common. 3. Multiply the common factors together to find the greatest common factor.

  2. Slide 7 / 305 Slide 8 / 305 2 Find the GCF of 72 and 75. 3 Find the GCF of 52 and 78. Pull Pull Pull Pull Slide 9 / 305 Slide 10 / 305 A multiple of a whole number is the product of the number There are 2 ways to find the LCM: and any nonzero whole number. 1. List the multiples of each number until you find the first A multiple that is shared by two or more numbers is a one they have in common. common multiple . 2. Write the prime factorization of each number. Multiply Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, ... all factors together. Use common factors only once (in other words, use the highest exponent for a repeated Multiples of 14: 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84,... factor). The least of the common multiples of two or more numbers is the least common multiple (LCM) . The LCM of 6 and 14 is 42. Slide 11 / 305 Slide 12 / 305 4 Find the least common multiple EXAMPLE: 6 and 8 of 10 and 14.
