Greatest Common Divisor/Greatest Common Factor
Week 1: September 24 – October 1, 2017
This week, we are going to learn about Least Common Multiple (LCM) and Greatest Common Divisor (GCD). LCM is needed in adding and subtracting dissimilar fractions, while GCD is needed in reducing fractions to lowest terms. In addition to LCM and GCD, we will also learn about converting improper fractions to mixed number and vice versa.

After learning about LCM and GCD in our PCSR Review Guide 1, let’s practice what we have learned by answering the exercises below.
1.) What is the LCM of 6 and 8?
2.) What is the LCM of 3, 4, and 9?
