Generally yes, but not in all cases. The largest Prime number has over 22 million digits but only two factors whereas 60 has six times as many factors.

Usually, but not necessarily and not if they're prime. All prime numbers have the same number of factors.

The larger of two numbers is 8 more than 4 times the smaller if the larger number is increased by four times the smaller the result is 40?

The larger of two numbers is 8 more than 4 times the smaller if the larger number is increased by four times the smaller the result is 40. From this statement, we can calculate the values of the numbers where you get the value of the larger number to be 24 and that of the smaller number to be 4.

Why do prime numbers seem to get less frequent as you go larger into numbers?

This is not an easy question to answer, but you are correct that primes become less dense as you look at larger numbers.One way I intuitively think of this is, take a number like 10, and compare it to one like500000000, the smaller number certainly has fewer potential factors than the larger one.In other words, as the numbers get larger, many of them will have many more possible factors.Some will still have only 1 and themselves, or perhaps 3 or 4 factors, but in general, there are more factors. This is NOT a mathematical argument, just a way to think about the idea.


Are smaller fractions larger?

the numbers are larger, but could mean less or more: 1/20000000 is small and 20000000/1 is large
