Factors Activities - Worksheet
Maths Resource Description
This worksheet is designed to help students practice identifying factors of given numbers. A factor is a number that divides into another number without leaving a remainder. The worksheet presents a series of questions where students must determine which number is not a factor of another specified number. For instance, one of the questions asks which number is not a factor of 60, offering options such as 6, 2, 12, 16, and 30. Students are expected to recognise that 16 is not a factor of 60, as it cannot divide 60 evenly.
The second part of the worksheet shifts the focus slightly, asking students to circle the number that does not have a certain factor. For example, students must circle the number that does not have 6 as a factor from a list that includes 54, 16, 18, 24, and 66. This activity requires students to have an understanding of multiplication and division to identify which numbers are not divisible by the given factor. The worksheet covers a range of numbers and factors, making it a comprehensive tool for reinforcing the concept of factors in mathematics.
