ABE NRS 3

Lesson Objectives:

• Answer this essential question:
  • How do we use our understanding of factors and multiples to find the greatest common factor and the least common multiple?
    • Furthermore, how can we apply finding the greatest common factor and the least common multiple to real-world scenarios?
• Define, identify, and find factors, multiples, greatest common factors, and least common mutliples in computation problems.
• Solve real-world problems requiring we find the least common multiple or the greatest common factor that may include the distributive property.

Keywords: factor, multiple, greatest common factor (GCF), least common multiple (LCM), multiplication, product, multiple
