A Common Multiple is a numberthat is a multiple of two numbers.Here are common multiples for thenumbers 4 and 10
10 = 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 4 = 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24

is the smallestnumber that a set of given numbers dividesevenly into.
LCM -Least Common Multiple
It is useful to know how to do this so you can find a common denominator when adding or subtracting fractions.
LCM is also known as finding the Least Common Denominator

To find the To find the LCM 4 and 12 4 and 12
2) Find the least multiple that both numbers have in common.
1) List the multiples of both numbers
4 = 4, 8, 12, 16, 20…12 = 12, 24, 36, 48…LCM is 12
This method is useful if both numbers are small.

GIANT ONE
GIANT ONE
The Giant One is used to find equivalent fractions.
It is used to reduce or simplify fractions.
The giant one works because of the Identity Property.

sign. Means larger or greater than Means smaller or less thanMeans equal to
