Factors create multiples, multiples break down into factors.
A word problem that involves common multiples could be, "Whatare the common multiples of 10 and 15?"
yes because it helps me figure out all the prime numbers!;)
Common factors: 1 and 2 Common multiples: Any multiple of 132
Factors go into numbers, numbers go into multiples.
2 and 5 are the prime factors that are common to all multiples of 10.
They are useful in finding the least common denominators.
By finding the factors in both numbers and then finding the one that is greatest in common. For example the G.C.F for 45 and 36 is 9.
1 and 2 are common factors. 84 and 168 are common multiples.
