Every Prime number has exactly two factors. One of the factors is ' 1 '.
The other factor is the number itself. If the number has any more factors,
then it's not a prime number.
If someone gives you a number, guarantees that it's definitely a prime number,
and asks you to find the factors, you know the answer immediately. There are
two factors. One of the factors is ' 1 ', the other factor is the number itself, and
there are no more factors.

13 is a Prime number because it has only two factors which are itself and one
List all the factors of each number. Which factors are prime factors between 20 and 28.
There are an infinite number of answers : eg 0.1*1430, 0.5*286 etc. The two sets of integer answers are 1*143 and 11*13
As a product of its prime factors: 23*3*5 = 120
Factors are numbers we can multiply together to get another number: Example: 2 and 3 are factors of 6, because 2 × 3 = 6. A number can have MANY factors!So, an easy way of finding your answers is to look at a timetable charts and analyze what equals to 2,4 and #5.
There are lots of answers because this number has lots of factors. Some of the answers are : 2x3552, 6x1184, 16x444, 32x222, 37x192, 74x96 and so on.
Number factors help find common denominators in fractions and reducing fractions. In algebra they are used to find the answers to higher level equations like quadratics.
23 x 3 x 5 = 120
Well, the factors of a prime number is that they only have two factors.
OK, so maybe I'm making a fool of myself; it won't be the first time. Assume positive integers, and assume that 1 (one) is one of the factors. Also assume that any factor is used only once. If factors can be used any number of times then any number answers the question (seven ones and the number). The smallest number with 8 distinct factors is 510510. If you do not count 1 as a factor, the smallest such number is 9699690. In order, the factors would be 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, (19).
The proper factors of a number do not include one and the number itself.
