Common mistakes

What learners typically get wrong, and how to fix it.

  • Mixes up factors and multiples.

    Correction: Factors are Few (they fit inside), multiples are Many (they go on forever).

  • Misses factor pairs.

    Correction: Work through 1, 2, 3… in order until the pairs meet.

Teacher tips

  • · Use factor rainbows to show pairs.

Parent tips

  • · Ask how many ways 24 sweets can be put into equal bags.

Real-life applications

  • · Arranging chairs in equal rows, syncing bus timetables (LCM).
