Factor The numbers that are multiplied to get a product • 15 = 3 x 5 • 3 and 5 are factors of 15 2 x 9 = 18 2 & 9 are factors of 18 3 x 2 =6 3 & 2 are factors of 6
Prime Number is a counting number that only has two factors, itself and one. • One is not a prime 7 is a prime 5 is a prime
Composite Number Counting numbers which have more than two factors (such as six, whose factors are 1, 2, 3 and 6) • One is not a composite 8 is a composite 55 is a composite
A Rhyme to Help Us Remember Prime number Prime number What do you see? I see no other factors Except for one and me. Composite number Composite number What do you see? I see at least three factors Including one and me.
All of the orange numbers on this chart are prime. Write them down. Refer to them so you don’t waste time trying to factor them.
Prime Factorization When a composite number is written as a product of all of its prime factors Using the Factor Tree 78 / \ / \ 2 x 39 / / \ / / \ 2 x 3 x 13
Let’s Try a Factor Tree! 84 / \ 2 x 42 / / \ 2 x 2 x 21 / / / \ 2 x 2 3 x 7
72 / \ 8 x 9 / \ / \ 2 x 4 x 3 x 3 / \ 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 72 / \ 2 x 36 / / \ 2 x 2 x 18 / / / \ 2 x 2 x 2 x 9 / / / / \ 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 Factor Trees do not look the same for the same number, but the final answer is the same.
Greatest Common Factor The largest common factor of 2 or more numbers GCF of 24 and 36 Is 12 Use prime factorization or ladder to find GCF GCF of 72 and 84 Is 12
72 / \ 8 x 9 / \ / \ 2 x 4 x 3 x 3 / \ 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 Take the common prime factors of each number and multiply to find the greatest common factor. 84 / \ 2 x 42 / / \ 2 x 2 x 21 / / / \ 2 x 2 3 x 7 2 x 2 x 3 = 12 Prime Factorization is helpful for finding greatest common factors.
Least Common Multiple The smallest product that both numbers have in common LCM of 5 & 7 Is 35 LCM of 4 & 10 is 20 LCM of 12 & 15 Is 60
