First I'd like to thank you all for doing a wonderful job reviewing for our Cumulative Assessment. You guys did great with reviewing and study time and I enjoyed playing Around The World! Onward to Chapter 5!
Many of you know how to compare and order fractions already. Chapter 5 begins with this very topic - but before we review comparing and ordering fractions, we must master finding the Least Common Multiple (or LCM) or two or more numbers.
Please watch the following video and pay special attention to the Prime Factorization method of finding the LCM:

Then complete pg. 239, #s 5-13. Try to use the Prime Factorization method for at least three of these problems. See you tomorrow!
