number?

Explain your answer.

2 The product of two odd numbers is

A oddB even

Multiplication is repeated addition. If you add an odd number over and over, then the sum will switch between even and odd. Since you are adding the number an odd number of times, your product will be odd.

13 x 8 is equivalent to saying 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13.Since you are adding it an even number of times, the product will be even.

4 The sum of 32,877 + 14,521 is

A oddB even

Explain your answer.

If you model the numbers using dots and circle all the pairs, the single dots leftover from each number will create a pair and none will be leftover making the sum an even number.

A oddB even

Explain your answer.

If you model the problem using dots and circle all the pairs, then there will be one dot leftover since one of the addends is odd.

Explain your answer.

The first two addends will result in an odd number. By adding another odd number, the sum is even. Adding an even number will result in an even number. Since the last addend is odd, the final answer will be odd.

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,...  

Least Common Multiple

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.

Page 64: 6th Grade - NJCTLcontent.njctl.org/courses/math/6th-grade-math/... · 6th Grade Factors and Multiple ... •Divisibility Rules for 3 & 9 •Even and Odd Numbers Teacher Notes Vocabulary

64

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).
