 DAY 1 ACTIVITIES
A. Mini-Lesson:

Hello dear learner. Did you enjoy performing

operations on whole numbers in the
previous lesson?

I hope you have familiarized and mastered already the steps in

applying PMDAS or GMDAS. Today, you are going to learn how to find
the greatest common factor of two or more numbers.

This module covers the lesson on finding the greatest common

factor of two or more numbers. The knowledge and skills that you
will gain from the activities will be very useful inputs in the coming
lessons, that you are going to learn.

Let's talk about the common factor and the

GCF. Study this!!!

Common Factor:

1
Common factors:
The Venn Diagram shows when two numbers share a factor, that
factor is called a common factor .

Example 1: The Common Factors of 36 and 40

Factors of 36 are 1,2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 36

Factors of 40 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, and 40

 Notice that 1, 2, and 4 appear in both numbers.

 So, the common factors are 1, 2, and 4 as shown in the Venn
diagram.

Here is another example with three numbers.

Example 2: The common factors of 15, 30 and 105

Factors of 15 are 1, 3, 5, and 15

Factors of 30 are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, and 30
Factors of 105 are 1, 3, 5, 7, 15, 21, 35 and 105

 The factors that are common to all three numbers are 1, 3, 5 and
15
 In other words , the common factors of 15,30 and 105 are 1, 3,
5 and 15

2
 Example 3 : The common Factors of 8,12,16, and 20.

Factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4 and 8

Factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12
Factors of 16 are 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16
Factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10 and 20

 The factors that are common to all four numbers are 1, 2 and 4.
 Then, the common factors are those that are found in the lists
 So, the common factors of 8, 12, 16, and 20 are 1, 2 and 4.

It is a common factor when it is a factor of two or more

numbers.

 From the common factors you will see the highest or greatest
common facto .

 Then, what is Greatest Common factor?

 It is simply the largest of the common factors.

 In our previous example, the largest of the common factor of 8,

12, 16 and 20 is 4.

Factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4 and 8

Factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12
Factors of 16 are 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16
Factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10 and 20

So, the Greatest Common Factor or GCF of 8, 12, 16 and 20 is 4.

3
  One way of solving the GCF of a set of given numbers is through
Continuous Division Method. It is done with a repeated
division until all given numbers are not anymore divisible by one
common divisor other than 1

Let’s start with an example.

Example 1: GCF of 18 and 27

Follow the Steps

Multipy the numbers on the left to get the GCF

3x3=9
The Greatest Common factor or GCF of 18 and 27 is 9 .

Example 2: Find the GCF of 28 56 and 42

Multipy the numbers on the left to get the GCF

7 x 2 = 14
4
 So, the Greatest Common factor or GCF of 28, 56, and 42 is 14
.
Example 3: Find the GCF of 6, 18, 24 and 36

Again , multipy the numbers on the left to get the GCF

2x3=6
So, the Greatest Common factor or GCF of 6, 18, 24 and 36 is
6.

 DAY 2 ACTIVITIES

A. Mini-Lesson:

Today you will be dealing with a new lesson about Finding the
Least Common Multiple of a set of numbers.
After learning this module, you are expected to have a full
understanding of Finding the Least Common Multiple of a set of
numbers.
Specifically, you should be able to :
 identify the common multiples of a set of numbers.
 find the least common multiple of a set of numbers.
 write the multiples and Least Common Multiple of a set of
numbers.

What is a "Multiple"?
We get a multiple of a number when we multiply it
by another number. Such as multiplying by 1, 2, 3,
4, 5, etc, but not zero. Just like the multiplication
table.


Here are some examples:

The multiples of 4 are: 4,8,12,16,20,24,28,32,36,40,44,...

The multiples of 5 are: 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,…

The product of two counting numbers is the multiple of each of

the numbers.

Just like common factors, two or more numbers also have

9
common multiples.

What is a "Common Multiple"?

10
  From the common multiples you will see the smallest or least
common multiple .

Then, What is "Least Common Multiple" ?

 It is simply the smallest of the common multiples.

 In the previous example,the multiples of 3 and 4 are 12, 24,36...

 The smallest multiples of 3 and 4 is 12
 So, 12 is the least common multiple.

To find the Least Common Multiple or LCM of the given numbers,

we can use continuous division method .

We have learned this method from the previous lesson and

we will apply the same steps in solving for the LCM.

Example 1: Findingthe LCM of 6 and 12

Follow the steps:

Multiply 2 x 3 x 1 x 2 = 12
The LCM of 6 and 12 is 12

11
 We can also find the least common multiple of three (or more)
numbers.

Example 2: Find the Least Common Multiple of 3, 6, and 9

Multiply numbers(factors) from the left column with the numbers

at the bottom to get the LCM.
2 x 3 x 3 x 1 x 1 x 1 = 18
LCM of 3, 6, and 9 is 18 .
Example 3 : What is the LCM of 20, 24, 28, and 32?

Again, multiply numbers(factors) from the left column with the

numbers at the bottom to get the LCM.
2 x 2 x 2 x 2x 2x 3 x 5 x 7 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 = 3360
The LCM is 3360

a. 3 b. 15 c. 45 d. 135

5. What is the least number of candies that can be divided

equally among 8, 9, and 12 children?
a. 20 b. 45 c. 60 d. 72

Day 3 Activities

 A. Mini Lesson

Our lesson for today is about solving real-life problems involving GCF of
2-3 given numbers.

You can use 4 steps in solving the problem.

The largest number of plates, table
What is asked? napkins, and cups he could bring to every
Christmas party he will go to.
Plates come in packages of 60 Tables
What are the given facts?
napkins in 80 Cups in 120
How will you solve the By finding the Greatest Common Factor
problem? (GCF)

Solve:
How is the You can find the GCF of the three quantities in 3

1. Through Continuous Division Method.

2 4 4
2 2 2
4 8 8
3 2 3
12 16 24
5 5 5
60 80 120
Now that we are done with the continuous
division, we will proceed to identifying the
common factors of numbers 60, 80 and 120.
Based on the method above, the quotient is as
follows: 5, 2 and 2.
Next, we will multiply these numbers: 5 x 2 x 2=20

Therefore, the GCF is 20.

15
 We also have another method with will show the
same answer. This is called, the Listing Method.

2. Listing Method: List all the factors of:

60−1,2, 3 , 4,5 , 6 , 10 ,15 , 20 , 30,60
80−1,2,3,4 , 5,6 ,10 , 16 , 20 , 40,80
120−1,2, 3 , 4,5 , 6 , 10 ,12,15 , 20 , 24,30,40,60,120
Therefore, the common factors are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10,
and 20. But the greatest is 20, so the GCF is 20.
3. Using Prime Factorization:
60 2 x2 x3 x 5
80 2 x2 x2 x2 x5
120 2 x2 x2 x3 x5
2 x2 x5 ¿ 20
We can see in the solution above that 2, 2 and 5
are the common prime factors of 60, 80 and 120.

Multiply the common factors and that makes the

GCF or the Greatest Common Factor

 Day 4 Activities
A. Mini Lesson

The next lesson is about solving real–life problems involving LCM

of 2–3 given numbers.
Study the problem below.

Plane A flies to Davao every 4 days. Plane B flies to Davao every 8

days. If both planes are in Davao on July 17, what is the earliest
date that both planes will be in Davao again?
You can again use 2 steps in solving the problem.

Understand:
The earliest date that both planes will be in
What is asked?
Davao again.
Plan:
How will you solve the 1. By finding the Least Common Multiple
problem? (LCM)
Solve: Find the LCM of the quantities in 2 ways.
Using Prime Factorization:
4=2 x 2
8=2 x 2 x 2
2 x2 x2 ¿8
Get the products of all the in the list factors
then multiply and that makes the LCM or
Least Common Multiple.
How is the solution 2. By Using Listing Method:
done? List all the multiples
4=4 , 8 , 12 ,16 , 20 , 24 , 28 ,32
8=8 , 16 ,24 ,32 , 40 , 48
Common multiples are 8, 16, 24, 32 and
more but the least common is 8, so the LCM
is 8.
Therefore, we have confirmed that after 8
days, both planes will be in Davao again.
Check and Look Back: Thus: 8 days after July 17 is July 25.

What is the answer to Both planes A and B will be in Davao again

the problem? on July 25.
