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.
7th grade / Number / Multiples Factors Primes / Multiples / LCM using product notation
To find the lowest common multiple (LCM) of two numbers, you need to find the smallest multiple that both numbers have in common. One way to do this is to use prime factorization and product notation. Here are the steps:
For example:
The prime factorization of one number is 2² x 3 x 5.
The prime factorization of the other number is 2 x 3² x 7.
The product notation is 2² x 3² x 5 x 7.
If required, you can simplify the product notation by multiplying the bases and their respective exponents. For example, 2² x 3² x 5 x 7 = 4 x 9 x 5 x 7 = 1260.
Here's an example of how to find the LCM of 12 and 15 using product notation:
Write each number as a product of prime factors.
Write the prime factors of each number in product notation, multiplying each factor by the highest power it appears in either number: 2² x 3 x 5. Note that the factor 5 appears in only one of the numbers but we still include it in the product notation.
To get the LCM as a number you can simplify the product notation by multiplying the bases and their respective exponents.
Therefore, the LCM of 12 and 15 is 2² x 3 x 5 in product notation, which is 60.
In this topic you are asked to use prime factorization to derive the lowest common multiple of 2 numbers and present your answer using product notation.
With our Sow grow math game you will be practicing the topic "LCM using product notation" from 7th grade / Number / Multiples Factors Primes / Multiples Factors Primes. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to identify the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 2 numbers using product notation.
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.
