Illustration of Find Factors and Multiples: Listing what divides a number evenly (its factors) and what it divides into evenly (its multiples), then finding what two numbers share.
Find Factors and Multiples

ES Hallar factores y múltiplos

Listing what divides a number evenly (its factors) and what it divides into evenly (its multiples), then finding what two numbers share.

Listar lo que divide un número exactamente (sus factores) y lo que el número forma al contar de esa cantidad (sus múltiplos), y luego hallar lo que dos números comparten.

Illustration of Factor: A whole number that divides another number evenly, with no remainder.
Factor

ES Factor

A whole number that divides another number evenly, with no remainder.

Un número entero que divide a otro exactamente, sin residuo.

Illustration of Multiple: The result of multiplying a number by 1, 2, 3, and so on — where you land when you skip-count by it.
Multiple

ES Múltiplo

The result of multiplying a number by 1, 2, 3, and so on — where you land when you skip-count by it.

El resultado de multiplicar un número por 1, 2, 3, y así sucesivamente: donde caes al contar de esa cantidad.

Illustration of Greatest common factor (GCF): The largest number that is a factor of two or more numbers. It answers “how many equal groups can I make?”
Greatest common factor (GCF)

ES Máximo común divisor (MCD)

The largest number that is a factor of two or more numbers. It answers “how many equal groups can I make?”

El número más grande que es factor de dos o más números. Responde “¿cuántos grupos iguales puedo formar?”

Illustration of Least common multiple (LCM): The smallest number that is a multiple of two or more numbers. It answers “when will these line up again?”
Least common multiple (LCM)

ES Mínimo común múltiplo (mcm)

The smallest number that is a multiple of two or more numbers. It answers “when will these line up again?”

El número más pequeño que es múltiplo de dos o más números. Responde “¿cuándo volverán a coincidir?”

Illustration of Factor pair: Two factors that multiply to make a number. In a word problem, one is the number of groups and the other is the size of each group.
Factor pair

ES Par de factores

Two factors that multiply to make a number. In a word problem, one is the number of groups and the other is the size of each group.

Dos factores que se multiplican para formar un número. En un problema, uno es la cantidad de grupos y el otro el tamaño de cada grupo.

Illustration of Prime factorization: Writing a number as a product of prime numbers, usually with a factor tree. Multiplying the primes two numbers share also gives the GCF.
Prime factorization

ES Descomposición en factores primos

Writing a number as a product of prime numbers, usually with a factor tree. Multiplying the primes two numbers share also gives the GCF.

Escribir un número como producto de números primos, normalmente con un árbol de factores. Multiplicar los primos que dos números comparten también da el MCD.

Illustration of Common factor: A factor that two numbers both have.
Common factor

ES Factor común

A factor that two numbers both have.

Un factor que dos números tienen en común.

Illustration of Greatest common factor: The largest factor two numbers share.
Greatest common factor

ES Máximo común divisor

The largest factor two numbers share.

El mayor factor que dos números tienen en común.

Illustration of Least common multiple: The smallest multiple two numbers share.
Least common multiple

ES Mínimo común múltiplo

The smallest multiple two numbers share.

El menor múltiplo que dos números tienen en común.
