They roll two dice, multiply the numbers, and then think of all the ways you could make that product using factors or prime factors. 5) Multiple Mix-Up: Students explore lists of multiples to determine which times table they come from. They start to identify which multiples will always occur together (for example, multiples of 9 will always also be multiples of 3). 6) LCM and GCF Practice: Finally, students work with all their knowledge to find lowest common multiples and greatest common factors. Grades to Use With: These pages are designed to be used with older students in middle and high school (grades 6-10). They could be a great review to ensure your students are ready for factoring polynomials, they could be easy sub plans to have on hand, or they could be a simple warm-up.
