Mathematics Grade 4 Quarter 2 Episode 9

This document provides a self-learning material on solving real-life problems involving the least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers. It contains an example problem where Ruben takes 20 minutes to finish a set of exercises and Ramon takes 30 minutes. To have them finish at the same time, they need to find the LCM of 20 and 30 minutes, which is 60 minutes. Therefore, if they started at 1:00 AM, they will both finish at 2:00 AM. The document also provides an activity for students to solve a similar word problem about two people walking different distances in different times and needing to finish at the same time.

Competency: Solves real-life problems involving GCF and LCM in 2 given numbers.
M4NS-IId-70.1
Subtask:
Solves real-life problems involving LCM in 2 given numbers

Remember:
To solve word problems involving LCM, we use the following steps.

Understand, Plan and solve.

 The LCM or The Least Common Multiple is the smallest number that can be divided by two or
more numbers in a set.

Problem 1
Ruben takes 20 minutes to finish each set of exercises while Ramon takes 30 minutes per set. They
started at 1:00 AM. If they want to finish at the same time, at what time will they both finish their
exercises?

To solve the problem, we are going to get the LCM of 20 and 30.
We use the Continuous Division Method

Since the numbers 20 and


30 are in minutes, 60 should
also be in minutes. Ruben
and Ramon will finish their
exercises at the same time
after 60 minutes. Since they
both began at 7:00 AM,
they will finish at exactly
8:00 AM.
