Factors and multiples

In this lesson, learners explored the concepts of factors and multiples, which are fundamental in understanding numbers. Factors are numbers that divide another number exactly without leaving a remainder. For example, the factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12. Multiples are numbers obtained by multiplying a given number by whole numbers. For example, the first five multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15. Learners practiced identifying factors and multiples of different numbers, distinguishing between the two, and applying these concepts in simple problem-solving scenarios, such as arranging objects or dividing quantities evenly. By the end of the lesson, learners should be able to: Identify all factors of a number. List multiples of a number. Understand the relationship between factors and multiples. Apply the knowledge to solve basic real-life problems involving factors and multiples.
