Thanks a million for pointing out the keys

Thanks alot for the additional knowledge,alot of little things I was not aware of were noted and will be of help

<h2>Key Concepts</h2>
<ul data-bullet-style="bullet">
<li><strong>Find the prime factorization of a composite number using the tree method.</strong>
<ol type="1">
<li>Find any factor pair of the given number, and use these numbers to create two branches.</li>
<li>If a factor is prime, that branch is complete. Circle the prime.</li>
<li>If a factor is not prime, write it as the product of a factor pair and continue the process.</li>
<li>Write the composite number as the product of all the circled primes.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li><strong>Find the prime factorization of a composite number using the ladder method.</strong>
<ol type="1">
<li>Divide the number by the smallest prime.</li>
<li>Continue dividing by that prime until it no longer divides evenly.</li>
<li>Divide by the next prime until it no longer divides evenly.</li>
<li>Continue until the quotient is a prime.</li>
<li>Write the composite number as the product of all the primes on the sides and top of the ladder.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li><strong>Find the LCM using the prime factors method.</strong>
<ol type="1">
<li>Find the prime factorization of each number.</li>
<li>Write each number as a product of primes, matching primes vertically when possible.</li>
<li>Bring down the primes in each column.</li>
<li>Multiply the factors to get the LCM.</li>

<h2>Glossary</h2>
<h3>least common multiple</h3>
<p>The smallest number that is a multiple of two numbers is called the least common multiple (LCM).</p>
<h3>prime factorization</h3>
<p>The prime factorization of a number is the product of prime numbers that equals the number.</p>
