Factors and Multiples
Finding factors and multiples of numbers
helps solve many mathematical problems. It is also very useful
when working with fractions e.g. adding 1/3 and 1/2.
This section includes explanations of what factors and multiples are, prime numbers and composite numbers.
Select from the links above or from the menu options to learn more about factors and multiples.
There are also worked examples showing how to do prime factorization
using factor trees as well using
the greatest common factor to solve problems.
