Factors and multiples Start Thinking
Here are 12 tiles. How many different ways can you arrange them to make a rectangle? Can you arrange the 12 tiles into a square?
Let’s Learn Together
1 Carl has 10 jelly beans. He arranges them in an array in different ways.
1 × 10 = 10
He then arranges them to make 2 rows of 5 jelly beans.
2 × 5 = 10
The numbers 1, 2, 5 and 10 all divide into 10. 1, 2, 5 and 10 are the factors of 10. 10 is a multiple of 1, 2 and 5.
We need to know our multiplication facts to find factors and multiples.
