Just a wee reminder of the meanings…

The multiples of a number are those you arrive at when you multiply it by another number.  So 3, 6, 9, 12 etc. are multiples of 3.

A common multiple of two numbers is one which is a multiple of both.  So common multiples of 3 and 5 include 15.

The lowest common multiple (LCM) of two numbers is the lowest number which is a multiple of both.  So the lowest common multiple of 3 and 5 is 15.

The inverse of multiple is factor.  So 3 is a factor of 3, 6, 9, 12 etc.

We multiply factors together to get another number, for example: 2 and 3 are factors of 6 because 2 x 3 = 6

So 6 is a common multiple of 2 and 3 and 2 and 3 are factors of 6.

2×3=6

2 and 3 are factors of 6 and 6 is a multiple of 2 and 3.
