Number
It is divisible if…
2
A number ends in
0, 2, 4, 6, 8
3
The sum of the digits is
divisible by 3
3, 6, 12, 135
142, 17, 23
4
If the last two digits are
divisible by 4 or the
number ends in 00.
44, 100, 124
120, 112
41, 77, 38
114, 14
5
If the number ends in 5 or
0.
10, 25, 55, 135
41, 77, 88
6
If the number is divisible
by 2 and 3.
6, 12, 24,
19, 44, 50
9

divisible by 9.
9, 18, 189, 981

A PRIME number is a number that has only two
factors: 1 and itself.
Example:
2:
only 1 and 2 will go into 2
3:
only 1 and 3 will go into 3
5:
only 1 and 5 will go into 5
Other prime numbers are :
7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, and many more!
Greatest common Factor (GCF)
To find the GCF do the following:
Step 1: List all the factors for each number
Step 2: Find the largest factor these two numbers have in common
Example:
Find the GCF for 60 and 72
60: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60
72: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
The largest number 60 and 72 have in common is 12, therefore the GCF = 12
Least Common Multiple
To find the least common multiple do the following:
Step 1: List the multiples for each number
Step 2: Find the smallest number they have in common other
than zero.
Example:
Find the LCM for 7 and 5
7: 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, …
5: 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, …

Composite numbers are numbers that have
more than two factors.
Example:
4: 1, 2 and 4 go into 4
6: 1, 2 , 3 and 6 go into 6
8: 1, 2, 4, and 8 go into 8.
QUIZ
Factors are numbers that go into another number. To find
the factors of a number, find the pairs.
Example:
Factors of 20
Factors of 50:
1 x 20
1 x 50
2 x 10
2 x 25
4 x
5 x 5
5
20: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
Then write them in order from least to greatest!
50: 1, 2, 5, 25, 50
Then write them in order from least to greatest!
Remember: A factor will never be larger than the number itself.
QUIZ
Factor Trees are used to find the PRIME
FACTORIZATION of a number.
70
Circle the number if
it is prime
35
5
2
7
Prime Factorization of
70 is: 2 x 5 x 7
QUIZ
Multiples are all the numbers a number will
go into. Multiples are infinite!
Examples:
Multiples of :
5: 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, …
3: 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, …
20: 0, 20, 40, 60, …
0 is the first multiple
of every number.
Multiples are infinite,
so you must end each
line with …
to show infinity.
