Updated June 2020
 Preparing for 6th Grade Accelerated Math
The purpose of the packet is to help you review and reinforce concepts and topics that are
necessary for success in sixth grade accelerated math.

Instructions:

Complete all sections of this packet. You will return this completed packet to your math teacher the
Friday after Labor Day. All work must be shown and final answers should be circled. Be neat and
methodical in your work.

Answer Keys for odd numbers are provided to help students ensure that they are successful with the
math concepts, however students must show work that supports their understanding. Students will
be tested on the concepts covered in this packet during the 2nd week of school.

It may be necessary to seek assistance on some questions/concepts...that is fine!

 Prime and Composite Numbers
and Prime Factorization
A prime number is a whole number that is greater than 1 and has exactly two factors, 1 and itself.
Examples: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13.

A composite number is a whole number that is greater than 1 and has more than two factors.
Examples: 4, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 12.

Every composite number can be written as the product of prime numbers. This is known as the
prime factorization.

To find the prime factorization of a number make a factor tree.

72 Begin with any two factors.

9 8 Continue to write factors until all are prime.

3 3 2 4 Write all factors from least to greatest.

2 2 Write the factors in exponential form.

Expanded form: 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3

Exponential form: 23 x 32

Tell whether each number is prime or composite.

1.) 65 ____________________________ 2.) 97 ____________________________ 3.) 116 ____________________________

Write the prime factorization of each of the following in exponential form. Use a factor tree to
find the prime factorization.

4.) 80 5.) 124 6.) 260

 GREATEST Common Factor and Least Common Multiple
The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) is the greatest number that is a factor of two numbers.

The Least Common Multiple (LCM) is the common multiple of two numbers which has the least
value.

Find the GCF and LCM of each pair of numbers:

1.) 20 and 30 2.) 18 and 72

GCF:___________ LCM:___________ GCF:___________ LCM:___________

Solve each of the following problems. Show all work.

3.) Gary has 24 football cards, 18 basketball cards, and 30 baseball cards. He wants the same number
of just one kind of card on each page of his album. What is the greatest number of cards he can have?

4.) In a school kitchen during lunch, the timer for pizza buzzes every 14 minutes; the timer for
hamburger buns buzzes every 6 minutes. The two timers just buzzed together. In how many minutes
will they buzz together again?

 Metric Measure
In the metric system, the meter (m) is the basic unit of length. The basic unit for
measuring capacity is liter (L). Mass is the amount of matter in an object. The basic unit
for measuring mass is gram (g).

To convert (change) one unit to another, multiply or divide by a power of 10.

 Classifying Lines
Geometry: Classifying Lines

If lines cross through the same point, they intersect. If they intersect at right angles, they are
perpendicular. ti they do not intersect, no matter how far they extend, they are parallel.

The lines intersect. The lines are perpendicular. The lines are parallel.
Rays and segments can also Intersect, or be perpendicular or parallel.
