Game: SOW GROW
Aim: To grow and gather sunflowers
Method:
Look at and listen to each math question. Click/tap on the pot that has the right answer. Expand answers if necessary using the magnifying glass buttons.
Correct answers water the seedling which grows, blooms and the flower is cut for the vase. Continue until you have collected the given number of flowers.
6th grade / Number / Multiples Factors Primes / Multiples / Lowest common multiples
The lowest common multiple (LCM) of two numbers is the smallest multiple that both numbers have in common. To find the lowest common multiple, write out the multiples of each number until you find a common multiple. The smallest multiple that they share is the LCM.
For example, to find the LCM of 6 and 8:
Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, ...
Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, ...
We can see that 24 is the smallest multiple that 6 and 8 share, so the LCM of 6 and 8 is 24.
Here's another example. Find the LCM of 12 and 18:
Multiples of 12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, ...
Multiples of 18: 18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, 126, 144, 162, 180, ...
We can see that 36 is the smallest common multiple of 12 and 18, so the LCM of 12 and 18 is 36.
It's important to note that this method can become more time-consuming and difficult when dealing with larger numbers, which is why methods such as prime factorization and product notation are often used for finding the LCM of larger numbers.
In this topic you are asked to find the lowest common multiple of pairs of numbers between 3 and 40.
With our Sow grow math game you will be practicing the topic "Lowest common multiples" from 6th grade / Number / Multiples Factors Primes / Multiples Factors Primes. The math in this game consists of 17 questions that ask you to identify the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 2 numbers.
Sow grow is a gentle game that concentrates on your ability to answer math questions. The game itself is very simple to play and does not require manual dexterity or fast reaction times. You are growing sunflowers in pots on a window sill. When you answer questions correctly you get to pick a sunflower to put in the vase. When the vase is full, you have completed the game.
