 * 1) Least common multiple word problem: This problem provides a situation where the least common multiple is the solution to a story problem. The student is asked to find the solution and write it in the space provided.Lagwp1.png
 * 2) Greatest common factor word problem: This problem provides a situation where the greatest common factor is the solution to a story problem. The student is asked to find the solution and write it in the space provided.Lagwp2.png

Strategies
This exercise is easy to get accuracy badges because the types of situations in the stories repeat often. This also makes the speed badges easy as it is possible to recognize the type and immediately proceed to calculate the answer.
 * 1) The LCM type problems involve shopping for smallest possible number of hotdogs....(and others).
