There's not a lot to explain. They're different words for the same thing. When you're multiplying, you call them factors. When you're dividing, you call them divisors.
A divisor is a number that divides another number evenly without leaving a remainder. In the case of 3, the divisors are 1 and 3, as they are the only numbers that can divide 3 without leaving a remainder. So, the divisors of 3 are 1 and 3.
Well, the factors of a prime number is that they only have two factors.
The number 9 is an example of a number that is both odd and composite. An odd number is one that is not divisible by 2, and a composite number is one that has more than two positive divisors. In the case of 9, its divisors are 1, 3, and 9, making it composite as well as odd. Other examples include 15, 21, and 25.
The divisors of 26 are the numbers that can divide 26 without leaving a remainder. In this case, the divisors of 26 are 1, 2, 13, and 26. This is because 1 and 26 are always divisors of any number, and 2 and 13 are the other pairs of numbers that multiply to give 26.
31,37 are not composite
Well honey, 12 can be divided by 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12. It's like a buffet of options for that number. Just pick one and divide away!
15
Well, honey, the 2-digit number that takes the cake for having the most factors is 60. It's like the social butterfly of numbers, with a whopping 12 factors strutting its stuff. So, if you want a number that's popular with all the other numbers, 60 is your go-to.
1764 is divisible by 1 and 4. There are probably other divisors as well. 1764 = 2x2x3x3x7x7 so it is divisible by any product of these factors as well as 1. For example it is divisible by 2x2x3x7 to give 3x7 =21
Well, darling, a prime number is a number greater than 1 that can only be divided by 1 and itself. In this case, 69 can be divided by 1, 3, 23, and 69. So, unfortunately, 69 is not a prime number. But hey, it's still a fun number to say!
Well,I know that 9999 is one number:)
You see, it will depend. On a great many other factors. You thought life was so easy? Well think again.
