Nathaniel, Miguel, and Kaylee want to distribute their chocolates equally. They need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the number of chocolates they each have. What does this mean?

• The GCF is the smallest number of chocolates that can be evenly divided among them.

• The GCF is the total number of chocolates they have together.

• The GCF is the average number of chocolates they each have.

• The GCF is the largest number of chocolates that can be evenly divided among them.

Answer explanation

The greatest common factor (GCF) is the largest number of chocolates that can be evenly divided among Nathaniel, Miguel, and Kaylee.

Kaylee, Bryant, and Miguel need to find a common time interval for a meeting. What is the least common multiple (LCM) of their time intervals?

• The LCM is the average of their time intervals.

• The LCM is the smallest positive integer divisible by their time intervals without a remainder.

• The LCM is the sum of their time intervals.

• The LCM is the largest positive integer divisible by their time intervals without a remainder.

Answer explanation

The LCM is the smallest integer divisible by their time intervals without remainder.

Commutative Property

Nathaniel says that they can add the cost of apples and oranges in any order, and the total cost will be the same. What is Nathaniel explaining?

• The commutative property states that the order of the numbers does not affect the result of addition or multiplication.

• The commutative property only applies to addition.

• The commutative property only applies to multiplication.

• The commutative property states that the order of the numbers affects the result of addition or multiplication.

Answer explanation

The commutative property states that the order of the numbers does not affect the result of addition or multiplication.
