Warm Up Exercise Think about the following questions and write your answers in your notes. 1) What is an even number? 2) List some examples of even numbers. 3) What is an odd number? 4) List some examples of odd numbers. Derived from 5
What do you think? What happens when we add two even numbers? Will we always get an even number? 6
Adding Even Numbers Drag the paw prints into the box to model 6 + 8 + Circle pairs of paw prints to determine if any of the paw prints are left over. Will the sum be even or odd every time two even numbers are added together? Why or why not? 7
Adding Odd Numbers Drag the paw prints into the box to model 9 + 5 + Circle pairs of paw prints to determine if any of the paw prints are left over. Will the sum be even or odd every time two odd numbers are added together? Why or why not? 8
Adding Odd and Even Numbers Drag the paw prints into the box to model 7 + 8 + Circle pairs of paw prints to determine if any of the paw prints are left over. Will the sum be even or odd every time an odd and even number are added together? Why or why not? If the first addend was even and the second was odd, then would your answer change? Why or why not? 9
1 The product of two even numbers is even. True False 10
2 The product of two odd numbers is A B odd even Explain your answer. Multiplication is repeated addition. If you add an odd number over and over, then the sum will switch between even and Click to Reveal odd. Since you are adding the number an odd number of times, your product will be odd. 11
3 The product of 13 x 8 is A B odd even Explain your answer. 13 x 8 is equivalent to saying 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13. Since you are adding it an even Click number to Reveal of times, the product will be even. 12
4 The sum of 32,877 + 14,521 is A B odd even Explain your answer. If you model the numbers using dots and circle all the pairs, the single dots leftover from each Click number to Reveal will create a pair and none will be leftover making the sum an even number. 13
5 The product of 12 x 9 is A B odd even Explain your answer. 12 x 9 is equivalent to 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12. No matter how many times Click you add to Reveal 12, since it is even the sum will always be even. 14
6 The sum of 8,972 + 1,999 is A B odd even Explain your answer. If you model the problem using Click to dots Reveal and circle all the pairs, then there will be one dot leftover since one of the addends is odd. 15
7 The sum of 9 + 10 + 11 + 12 + 13 is A B odd even Explain your answer. The first two addends will result in an odd number. By adding another odd number, the sum Click is to even. Reveal Adding an even number will result in an even number. Since the last addend is odd, the final answer will be odd. 16
8 The product of 250 x 19 is A B odd even Explain your answer. The product of an odd and even number will always result in an even number. Click to Reveal 17
9 The product of 15 x 0 is A B odd even Explain your answer. 0 is an even number and the product of any even number and odd number is always even. Click to Reveal 18

Least Common Multiple A multiple of a whole number is the product of the number and any nonzero whole number. A multiple that is shared by two or more numbers is a common multiple. Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48,... Multiples of 14: 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84,... The least of the common multiples of two or more numbers is the least common multiple (LCM). The LCM of 6 and 14 is 42. 63
Least Common Multiple There are 2 ways to find the LCM: 1. List the multiples of each number until you find the first one they have in common. 2. Write the prime factorization of each number. Multiply all factors together. Use common factors only once (in other words, use the highest exponent for a repeated factor). 64

GCF and LCM Word Problems Return to Table of Contents 79
Question How can you tell is a word problem requires you to use Greatest Common Factor or Least Common Multiple to solve? Math Practice 80
GCF Problems Do we have to split things into smaller sections? Are we trying to figure out how many people we can invite? Are we trying to arrange something into rows or groups? 81
LCM Problems Do we have an event that is or will be repeating over and over? Will we have to purchase or get multiple items in order to have enough? Are we trying to figure out when something will happen again at the same time? 82
Example Samantha has two pieces of cloth. One piece is 72 inches wide and the other piece is 90 inches wide. She wants to cut both pieces into strips of equal width that are as wide as possible. How wide should she cut the strips? What is the question: How wide should she cut the strips? Important information: One cloth is 72 inches wide. The other is 90 inches wide. Math Practice Is this a GCF or LCM problem? Does she need smaller or larger pieces? This click is a GCF problem because we are cutting or "dividing" the pieces of cloth into smaller pieces (factor) of 72 and 90. 83
Bar Modeling Use the greatest common factor to determine the greatest width possible. The greatest common factor represents the greatest width possible not the number of pieces, because all the pieces need to be of equal length. This is called making a Bar Model. 72 inches 90 inches Teacher Notes click 18 inches 84
Example Ben exercises every 12 days and Isabel every 8 days. Ben and Isabel both exercised today. How many days will it be until they exercise together again? What is the question: How many days until they exercise together again? Important information: Ben exercises every 12 days Isabel exercises every 8 days Is this a GCF or LCM problem? Math Practice Are they repeating the event over and over or splitting up the days? click This is a LCM problem because they are repeating the event to find out when they will exercise together again. 85
Bar Modeling Use the least common multiple to determine the least amount of days possible. The least common multiple represents the number of days not how many times they will exercise. Ben exercises in: 12 Days Isabel exercises in: Teacher Notes 8 Days 86
