Is Number a Multiple of Both - From Variables as Factors (Level 1)

This math topic covers skills in prime factorization, identifying multiples, and using variables as factors. The problems involve determining whether a given product expressed through a combination of primes and variables is a multiple of other specified products. Each question presents expressions and asks if one is a multiple of the others, with options for yes or no answers. The focus is on understanding factorization and the principles of multiples within the context of higher-level arithmetic operations, notably within a unit focused on factoring and finding the lowest common multiples.
