Finding GCF and LCM of Three Numbers

In this video, Mr. J explains how to find the greatest common factor (GCF) and the least common multiple (LCM) of three numbers. The process for finding the GCF involves listing the factors of each number and identifying the largest common factor. For the LCM, the video demonstrates listing multiples of each number and finding the smallest common multiple. Examples are provided for both concepts, and viewers are encouraged to practice for better understanding. Additional resources are mentioned for further learning.
