Factors, Multiples and Primes for KS3
This individual powerpoint presentation is from the KS3 Maths Topics Series.
It contains 54 slides (Plus a title and end slide), so there are lots of examples. This is an ideal resource which you will enjoy using to explain Facotrs, Multiples and Primes to your classes for years to come.
The powerpoint explains:
Prime Numbers & Finding Prime Numbers
Factors
Common Factor
Highest Common Factor
Multiples
Common Multiple
Lowest Common Multiple
Writing a Number as a Product of Prime Factors
2/3 Lessons.
Objectives:
Be able to write a number as a product of its prime factors.
Be able to construct a tree diagram to find the prime factors of a number.
Be able to calculate the HCF and LCM of two numbers using Venn diagrams.
Be able to find the HCF and LCM of two numbers when given the prime factorisation of each numbers.
Includes:
Lesson starters;
Worked examples;
Practise questions;
Plenary questions.
Bundle of games and display posters covering Factors, Multiples and Primes.
Factor Fifty Game
Player use numbers up to 50 on a 1-50 grid and have to cover a chosen number with a counter. Once a number is covered, they must cover as many factors of that number as possible too. The winner has the most counters on the board at the end of the game!
Factor Challenge
Challenge students to find the factors of 10 consecutive numbers in a row - make this game easier or harder by changing the 10 consecutive numbers.
Factors, Multiples and Primes
A4 poster showing how Factors can be shown with arrays and Cuisenaire rods, and how to identify prime numbers in the same way. What does a number with lots of factors look like next to a prime number?
Factors
A4 poster showing the difference between a factor and a multiple with visual representations - can your class make their own colourful factors and multiples pictures?
This is a fun way for students to revise numbers using a famous artist (Miro) colouring sheet.
Number topics included:
- prime numbers
- multiples and LCM
- factors and HCF
- square and square root
- cube and cube root
Students identify the solution to each question in one of the three answer boxes. They then find the question number on the colouring sheet and colour the section in the colour that corresponds to their answer.
Included in your purchase is a question sheet, answer sheet and colouring sheet. I print this as an A5 booklet (also included) so that students can then glue this into their notebooks.
Students can also mark their answers by comparing their colouring sheet to the original artwork. An engaging way for students to learn about numbers and art!
This pack includes six fortune tellers covering factors multiples, lowest common multiple and highest common factors of numbers. THis is an update with new content added, previous buyers should download to access new content. This download will include two downloads, on for the UK using the HCF terminology and a US version using the terminology of GCF. The six fortune tellers are;
Multiples 1 (inc. LCM)
Multiples 2 (inc. LCM)
Factors 1 (inc. HCF/GCF)
Factors 2 (inc. HCF/GCF)
Mix of factors & multiples 1
Mix of factors & multiples 2
I have included screen shots of some of the pages so that you can see the level of challenge present. There is a how to fold and how to play pupil friendly instruction sheet included. Pupils should be encouraged to show their workings in their books or on whiteboards.

Factors, Multiples, Primes, Squares and Cubes - Year 6
This Year 6 maths teaching resource includes a PowerPoint and differentiated worksheets for independent learning, to guide your class through identifying factors and multiples of numbers. It will help the children understand how to solve problems involving factors, multiples, primes and square/cube numbers in context, along with deepening their understanding of the four operations, as they will need to use a range of skills including multiplication and division. They will learn to represent factors and multiples in a variety of ways, including pictorial representations. The worksheets contain varied fluency, reasoning and problem solving to reinforce and consolidate the children’s learning. The resource contains five lessons, which support the White Rose Small Steps guidance, and are designed to support a mastery approach to teaching maths.
Content includes:
Lesson 1: Common factors with 1 accompanying worksheet and answers
Lesson 2: Common multiples with 1 accompanying worksheet and answers
Lesson 3: Prime numbers with 1 accompanying worksheet and answers
lesson 4: Square and cube numbers with 1 accompanying worksheet and answers
Lesson 5: Consolidation of skills learned so far with challenge cards
‘Factors, Multiples, Primes, Squares and Cubes - Year 6’ is completely editable giving teachers the freedom to adapt the resource to suit their individual teaching needs.

Multiples, Factors and Prime Numbers Bingo! game
A bingo game on finding multiples, factors and prime numbers.
Comes complete with printable unique bingo cards for up to 36 students. Alternatively there is a no print option where students draw their own 3 by 3 grid and choose nine numbers from the board.
If the answer to a slide is their number they cross it off. The first student to cross off all nine numbers calls out bingo! Usually there is a small prize for the winner.
Why use bingo in your lessons?
Math can and should be enjoyable. A bingo game turns math into an exciting experience that the kids will love.
Bingo will engage your students, fully involving them in an activity for 20 to 30 minutes.
Bingo is a great way to consolidate and answer questions on a recently taught topic or to get students to refresh their understanding of an earlier topic without them complaining that they’ve seen it before!
