MATHEMATICSTypes of Number – Multiples, Factors & Primes
Aims of the Lesson
• To learn about multiples, factors and prime numbers.
• To extend this into learning about lowest common multiples and highest common factors.
Multiples
• Multiples are the multiplication tables of the number given
• E.g. the multiples of 3 are: 3, 6, 9, 12…
• E.g. the multiples of 25 are 25, 50, 75, 100…
Multiple Tasks
1) Write down the first 10 multiples of 4
2) Write down the first 10 multiples of 5
3) Write down the first 10 multiples of 10
Answers
1) Multiples of 4 = 4 Times table…
4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40
2) Multiples of 5 = 5 Times table…
5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50
3) Multiples of 10 = 10 Times table…
10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100
LCM
• Lowest (ie. smallest value)• Common (that appears in every list)• Multiples (of each values’ multiplication table)
• Given two (or more) numbers you may be asked to find their lowest common multiple (LCM)
LCM Example
• What is the LCM of 6 and 8?
• Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48…• Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64…
• The common factors are in blue but the lowest of these is 24
LCM Tasks
• Using your answers from your multiple tasks…
1) What is the LCM of 4 and 5?
2) What is the LCM of 4 and 10?
Answers
1) 4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40
5: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50
LCM of 4 and 5 = 20
2) 4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40
10: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100
LCM of 4 and 10 = 20

Now move on to ‘factors’ on the next slide…
Factors
• Factors are numbers which divide exactly into a value
• That value can be made by multiplying factors together
• Finding different factor pairs helps find all the factors
Factors Example
• List all the factors of 12.
• Finding the factors of 12 using factor pairs:1 × 12 2 × 6 3 × 4
• All of the above pairs make 12
• The factors of 12 in ascending order are:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6 & 12
Factor Tasks
1) Find all the factors of 20
2) Find all the factors of 30
3) Find all the factors of 32
Answers
1) 20 = 1 × 20, 2 × 10, 4 × 5
Factors of 20 = 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
2) 30 = 1 × 30, 2 × 15, 3 × 10, 5 × 6
Factors of 30 = 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30
3) 32 = 1 × 32, 2 × 16, 4 × 8
Factors of 40 = 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32
HCF
• Highest (ie. biggest value)• Common (that appears in every list)• Factor (ie. of numbers that divide it exactly)
• Given two (or more) numbers you may be asked to find their highest common factor (HCF)
HCF Example
What is HCF of 24 and 30?
Factors of 24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
Factors of 30: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30
•All the ‘common factors’ are in blue, but the highest of these is 6.
HCF Tasks
• Using your answers from your factor tasks…
1) What is the HCF of 20 and 30?
2) What is the HCF of 20 and 32?
Answers
1) Factors of 20: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
Factors of 30: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30
HCF of 20 & 30 = 10
2) Factors of 20: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
Factors of 32: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32
HCF of 20 & 32 = 4
Prime Numbers
• A prime number has exactly two different factors
• It can only be divided exactly by 1 or itself
• 1 is not a prime number – it only has one factor
• 2 is the only even prime number
Prime Examples• Is 7 a prime number?
• YES: Factors are only 1 & 7 (2 factors)
• Is 9 a prime number?• NO: Factors are 1, 3 & 9 (3 factors)
• Is 20 a prime number?• NO: It is an even number!
Prime Numbers 1 - 100
• Printout worksheet: NoSq100.xlsx
• Cross out ‘1’ – it is NOT a prime number as it only has 1 factor (not 2).
• Circle ‘2’ and then cross out EVERY other number in the 2 times table.
• Circle ‘3’ and then cross out EVERY other number in the 3 times table.
• 4 is already crossed out so move on to 5.
Prime Numbers 1 – 100 (cont’d)
• Circle 5 and then cross out EVERY other number in the 5 times table.
• 6 is already crossed out so move on to 7.
• Circle 7 and then cross out EVERY other number in the 7 times table.
• Now circle all the remaining numbers that have not been crossed out.
Check
• You have just found all the prime numbers between 1 and 100.
• You should have ONLY the following numbers circled…
• 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, • 23, 29, 31, 37,• 41, 43, 47, 53, 59,• 61, 67, 71, 73, 79,• 83, 89, 93, 97
