Note for Parents & Teachers

This follows the NCERT Class 5 chapter "Animal Jumps". The factors of a number divide it exactly (the factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12); the multiples are the numbers in its table. A prime number has only 2 factors, 1 and itself. Common multiples are shared by two tables (12 is the first common multiple of 3 and 4). 1 is a factor of every number.
