Factors, multiples, and primes
Find all factor pairs for a whole number in the range 1–100; identify common factors and common multiples of two numbers; use these concepts to solve problems
Teaching approaches
Gakuva’s recommended starting approach is selected. You can still compare every option.
1 approach
Can your child list all the factor pairs for a number like 36 — (1, 36), (2, 18), (3, 12), (4, 9), (6, 6) — and find factors that two numbers share?
