A composite number.
Actually, all integers have at least two factors. Even primes are divisible by 1 and themselves.
This is a clever question. I would say: "Always". To be more precise: The product is never greater than either factor, and if neither factor is ' 1 ', then the product is always less than both.
The product is less than either factor.
When one factor is less than one, the product will be less than the other factor.
At least three.
The product is less than the other factor. For example: 0.5 x 6 = 3. 3 is less than the factor that is greater than 1 (which is 6).
By finding out whether they have any factors in common. If the only factor they have in common is 1, the LCM will be their product. If they have more factors in common, their LCM will be less than their product.
More. There are 116 of them.
The product will be less than the other factor.
The terms (factors) used in multiplication are the multiplicand (the factor being multiplied), the multiplier (the factor that the multiplicand is multiplied by) and the product (the answer, or results of the multiplication). Any time either of the factors is greater than the other by at least one, the product will always be greater than the largest factor.
In the equation 4 x 9 = 36, the product (36) is greater (larger) than each factor (4 and 9).
When they have a common prime factor. When their GCF is greater than 1.
You need two numbers to get a product. A factor pair for any number other than 288 will give a product that is not 288.
