LI: How to identify multiples of numbers and find the lowest common multiple of two numbers.
In LS2 maths group 4B
are learning on how to identify multiples and find there lowest two common multiples of two numbers, when trying to find the LCM we have to list they’re different multiples in order to get there lowest common multiple. The lowest common multiple is the smallest multiple of any numbers for example to find the LCM of 4 and 6 we need to list there multiples, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 and so on but for 6 is 6, 12, 18, 24 and so on, then when you’re done listing we can now find the LCM which is 24 because 6 and 4 both share the same number. When we did this topic we had some difficulties but in the end we all still copped with eachother and understanded.
