It's not! Any number of blades are ok as long as the blades are equally spaced apart and its balanced.

Would you rather find all the factors of a number or find all the prime factors of a number?
Once all the prime factors of a number have been found, the number of factors the number has and what they are can be found. I'd be finding the prime factors first before finding all the factors of a number, so I'd rather find all the prime factors as it means I can stop before I have to do more work in finding all the factors.

What is the decimal number 23 as a binary number?
The number 23 is 10111 in binary. The digits in a binary number are exponents of 2 rather than 10, so that for a five digit number in binary, the digit places represent 16, 8, 4, 2, 1 instead of increasing values of 10. 10111 = 16+0+4+2+1 = 23

Why does a ceiling fan have only 3 blades?
Fans can have any number blades--even one! (but then you need a counterweight for balance). There are airplanes that have one blade for a propeller. There are many variables that figure into how many blades a fan has. Air velocity, noise, shape of the blade, length of the blade, material cost, vibration, etc. For airplanes sometimes they change 2-bladed propellers for three or four or more to get different flying characteristics.

Why do many transport planes still use propeller engines rather than jet engines?
Propeller engine, also called turboprop, is a members of the jet family. Each aircraft has a unique mission and therefore a unique propulsion requirement. Transport plane carries cargo a long distance, but it does not have the high speed requirement. So transport plane use propeller.

Why in World War 1 did the British system of firing through the propeller not work?
The system you are refering to was developed by the French. The deflector system relied upon a steel wedge being bolted to the propellers, so they could deflect the bullets that hit the propeller. It was the first successful design that allowed bullets to be shot forward, through the propeller. This system did not have any synchronisation gear attached, that would allow the bullets to fly between the blades, but rather relied upon the metal to prevent the propeller blades from being shot to pieces by kicking bullets aside. Enough bullets made it between rotations to allow the pilot to hit a target. The deflector was also called the Garros Wedge (after the French pilot who used it successfully Roland Garros) although it was designed by French aircraft designer Raymond Saulnier (Morane-Saulnier aircraft) If you are interested in a diagram of how the wedge looked, check out http://www.ctie.monash.edu.au/hargrave/morane-saulnier.html Scroll down to the section on Morane-Saulnier Type L, 1913. There is a diagram of the deflector. Not the best diagram, but the only one I could find on-line.
