Game: UXO
Aim: Knock out the targets, avoid the bombs
Method:
Click or tap and hold to destroy the objects while avoiding the bombs. When you knock out all 10 targets, you must answer the question to continue to the next level. There is a time limit of 30 seconds to get all 10 targets or you lose 50 points.
Scoring is :
Hit target : +10
Hit bomb : -5
Right answer : +50
Wrong answers : -20
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 UXO 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.
UXO is a fun game to learn math where you attempt to knock over all the target objects while avoiding clicking / tapping on the bombs.
After each level, win an additional 50 points by correctly answering a math question from your selected topic. Wrong answers lose you 20 points but you can answer multiple times. Each level lasts 30 seconds: if you haven't cleared all the targets in that time, you lose 50 points. High scores can be added to the UXO leaderboards.
