Yes. 6 is a multiple of 3. And does not 6 also have multiples? And you cannot have a multiple without factors. In the equation:
2 x 3 = 6, what are the factors? 2 and 3. So then in the equation 6 x 2 = 12, what are the factors? 6 and 2. But 6 was the multiple of the factors 2 and 3. Yet here it sits playing the role of a factor! Therefore, A multiple can be a factor as well.
It can be either or both. 36 is a factor of 72. 36 is a multiple of 9. 36 is both a factor and a multiple of 36.
15 is both a multiple and a factor of itself.
8 is not a factor or multiple of 3.
It depends on the number it is compared to. 20 is a multiple of 10. 20 is a factor of 40. 20 is both a factor and a multiple of itself. 20 is neither a multiple nor a factor of 27.
1 is a factor of 4 that is not a multiple of 2.
16 is both a factor and a multiple of itself.
It can be both. 6 is a factor of 12 and a multiple of 3.
a factor is what you multiply by a multiple is the answer
A factor is what goes into a number, a multiple is what a number goes into. 3 is a factor of 9 27 is a multiple of 9.
No, 18 is not a factor of 32. 18 is a multiple of 6 and is not a factor of 32.
Which number is a factor of 10 , but not a multiple of 5
6 is both a factor and a multiple of 6.
