Animal Jumps

Answer

A factor of a number is a number that divides it completely without leaving any remainder. For example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12 are all factors of 12 because they divide 12 exactly.

Answer

A multiple of a number is the result of multiplying that number by any whole number. For example, multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18... (3×1, 3×2, 3×3, 3×4, etc.)

Answer

4, 8, 12, 16, 20. These are the first 5 multiples of 4 because the rabbit takes jumps of 4 steps each time.

Answer

The factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12. These numbers can divide 12 completely: 12÷1=12, 12÷2=6, 12÷3=4, 12÷4=3, 12÷6=2, 12÷12=1.

Answer

A common multiple is a number that is a multiple of two or more numbers. For example, 12 is a common multiple of 3 and 4 because 3×4=12 and 4×3=12.

Answer

12 is their first common landing point. The rabbit lands on 4, 8, 12, 16... and the frog lands on 3, 6, 9, 12, 15... So 12 is the first common multiple of 3 and 4.

Answer

A common factor is a number that divides two or more numbers completely. For example, 2 is a common factor of 8 and 12 because both 8÷2=4 and 12÷2=6 with no remainder.

Answer

The common factors of 24 and 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12. These numbers divide both 24 and 36 completely without remainder.
