Yes. 6 is a multiple of 3. And does not 6 also have multiples? And you cannot have a multiple without factors. In the equation: 2 x 3 = 6, what are the factors? 2 and 3. So then in the equation 6 x 2 = 12, what are the factors? 6 and 2. But 6 was the multiple of the factors 2 and 3. Yet here it sits playing the role of a factor! Therefore, A multiple can be a factor as well.
