How do you solve real world problems using the Greatest Common Factor or
Least Common Multiple?
Pierce swims every fourth day and Joshua swims every third day. If they
both swim on the first of the month, on what date will they both swim together
again?

In this lesson you will learn when to use the GCF and LCM to find solutions by
looking at real world problems.

Core Lesson When to look for the LCM• to figure out when two or
more events will happen again at the same time or on the same date
• to purchase or get multiple items of two or more different things in order to have enough
• about something that is or will be happening over and over
every three days and every four days

Core Lesson
Nhya has 16 girls and 12 boys in his class. He helps his teacher by making groups
which have the same combination of girls and boys. What is the largest number of groups that can be made without leaving
anyone out?

Core Lesson When to look for the GCF
• to arrange two or more things in rows or groups
• to divide things into smaller sections
• figuring out how many people can be invited or receive something
