First Quarter Day 1 Week 4

Objectives : at the end of the lesson, you will be able to;
a. Find the common factors and the GCF of two – four numbers using
continuous division
b. Compute the GCF of the given numbers using continuous division
Value Focus: Helpfulness
Prerequisite Concepts and Skills:

 Mastery of the basic multiplication and division basic facts
 Indentifying prime and composite and composite numbers
Materials: strips of cartolina, boxes, Flaglets, flash cards

Instructional Procedure:
A. Preliminary Activities
1. Drill
Game – Flaglets Race
Have a drill on the basic multiplication facts using the game “Flaglets Race”
Mechanics:
a. Divide the class into four groups. The leader gets the flags.
b. The teacher will flash the number written in the cartolina strips.
c. Ask the first member of each group to give the factors of the number.
d. The pupil who raises the flag first, gives the answer. The team gets the point
if the answer is correct. For every correct answer, a flag is attached to a
1
maze until a team reaches the finish line. If the answer is incorrect, the pupil
from the other team will give his/her answer.
e. The team whose flaglets reach the finish line first wins the contest.
2. Review
Game – Climbing the Ladder “Reach for the Star”
Mechanics:
a. Divide the pupils into 2 groups.
b. Flash the cards with numbers.
c. The pupils identify the number whether it is prime or composite numbers. The
first pupil who answers correctly climbs one step of the ladder.
d. The group who first reaches the top is the winner.
3. Motivation
Show a picture of a girl helping her mother in their garden. Ask the pupils to tell
something about the picture. Elicit the value of helpfulness.
Ask: how do you show helpfulness at home? In school? Is it good to be helpful?
Why?
B. Developmental Activities
1. Presentation
Present this problem to the class.
Kendra helps her mother in their garden. They sold 36

bougainvillea plants and 60 rose plants. They need to delivery those
plants in the resort. What is the biggest number of bougainvillea and
roses that can be placed in delivery trucks if these are of the same
number?
Have the pupils read the problem. Then ask: How many bougainvillea
plants were sold? How many rose plants were sold? What do Kendra and her
mother needs to do with the bougainvillea plants and rose plants? How will you
solve for the answer to the problem?

a. Using the same given numbers 36 and 60, find the GCF by using continuous
division.
b. Guide the pupils to get the GCF of the given numbers.
 Ask the pupil to write the number horizontally.
36 60
 What prime number can divide 36 and 60? (12)
2 36 60
 Ask the pupils to divide the numbers by the given prime number. Write
the quotients below the dividends.
2 36 60
18 30
 Continue the process until none of the numbers have a common
divisor.
2 36 60
2 18 30
3 9 15
3 5
Therefore the GCF is 2 x 2 x 3 = 12.
 What is the GCF of 36 and 60?
 How did you get the GCF of 36 and 60?
By getting the product of all the prime divisor or the common factors, we
obtain the GCF of the given numbers.
2. Performing the Activities

Group the pupils into 4 working teams and have them perform the task using
continuous division.
1. Richard bakes 42 cupcakes and 54 cookies. He plans to pack them
separately in small boxes. What is the biggest number of cupcakes and
cookies that can be placed in boxes if these are of the same number?
Solution: 2 42 54 Prime divisors are (2 x 3)
3 21 27
GCF is 6
7 9
3
2. There are 12 grade V and 18 grade VI pupils who will join the basketball
team. What is the greatest number of Grade V and Grade VI pupils that can
be grouped together if all pupils are to be included?
3 4 6
GCF is 6
2 3
3. If the numbers are 81 and 99, what is the GCF?

3 9 33
GCF is 9
3 11
4. Name the common factors of 39, 65, 117

Prime divisor is 13
Solution: 13 39 65 117
GCF is 13
13 5 9
5. Find the GCF of 25 75 105 120

Prime divisor is 5
Solution: 5 25 75 105 120
5 15 21 24 GCF is 5
3. Processing the Activities

Ask the groups to present and discuss their answers on the board.
Expected answer:
 We solved problem by continuous division, we multiply the prime divisors
to get the GCF.
4. Reinforcing the Concepts/Lesson

A. Discuss the presentation on top of page 1 of LM Math Grade 5.
B. Have the pupils do the following activities.
C. Find the common factors and the GCF of the following pairs of numbers using
a) 50 and 100 10 b) 66 and 99 11 c) 9, 27 and 81 9
d) 12 , 16 and 24 4 e) 18, 30 and 42 6
4
Ask pupils to work on exercises A and B under Get Moving on pages 1 and 2
LM Math Grade 5. Check the pupils’ answers. For mastery, have them answer the
exercises A and B under Keep Moving on page 2 and 3 of LM Math Grade 5. Check
on the pupils’ answers.
5. Summarizing the Lesson

Summarize the lesson by asking:
What is Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of two given number?
How do we find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of two given numbers using
continuous division?
 Greatest Common Factor or GCF is the biggest factor common to two

numbers.
Continuous division is done following the steps below:

 Write the number horizontally and find a prime number that will divide the
numbers, if possible.
 Divide by that prime number and write the quotients below the dividends.
Copy any numbers not divided below them.
 Continue the process until no two numbers have a common prime divisor.
 Multiply all the prime divisors common to the given numbers to get the
GCF.
6. Applying to New and Other Situations

Have the pupils do the exercises under Apply Your Skills on page 3 LM Math
Grade 5. Encourage some pupils to show and discuss their answers.
60 90 105 195
C. Assessment
Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the given pairs of numbers by
1) 16 and 24 5) 18, 27 and 36 9) 48, 56, 64 and 72
2) 20 and 30 6) 36, 45 and 66 10) 27, 45, 63, and 81
3) 21 and 35 7) 36, 60, 84 and 108
4) 32 and 40 8) 12, 16, 24 and 36

D. Home Activity
Remediation
Provide the following exercise. You may give more.
Find the GCF of the following numbers.
1) 9 12 3) 18 24 32 5) 21 28 35 42
2) 15 20 4) 13 39 52 6) 10 12 14 18
Enrichment
Ask the pupils to answer the following questions.
Using continuous division what is the Greatest Common Factor of the given pairs of
numbers.
1) 9, 42 2) 13, 52 3) 12, 21, 30 4) 30, 75, 120, 150
