Factors and Multiples

This week we have been learning about factors and multiples. Try this fun (and very funny!) game to practise your new skills.

Remember:

Factors are numbers that divide exactly into another number.
The factors of 12, for example, are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12.

Multiples are really just extended times tables.

The multiples of 2 are all the numbers in the 2 times table:
2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and so on.

The multiples of 10 are all the numbers in the 10 times table:
10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and so on.
