Number Theory, Lesson 13: LCM via Prime Factorization

Math skill: Find the LCM by Comparing Prime Factorizations

How the beat teaches it: Every slot gives two numbers' prime factorizations — the LCM takes each prime at its larger exponent. Build that many notes anywhere in the kit.

This is lesson 13 of 24 in RockBlocks Math, Number Theory, a free course where every lesson turns a math idea into something you can count, hear, and play. The previous lesson, GCD via Prime Factorization,” covered find the GCD by Comparing Prime Factorizations. Next is Lesson 14, Multiplicative Order.”

Every slot above (A, B, C, D) is its own question, and it’s a real, blank RockBlocks beat the whole time — the same drag-and-drop tiles, kit, tempo, sheet music, and drummer view as anywhere else on the site. Tap ❓ Questionin the corner to read the current slot’s problem, build your answer right in the grid, then tap ✓ Check Answerto grade it. Once you’re done, keep going: expand the beat, drop it into a Stack, or save a copy to your own page — nothing here overwrites the lesson itself, so every visitor still starts from the same blank slots.
