Oh, absolutely! Just like when we add a touch of titanium white to brighten up a painting, numbers can have many factor pairs beyond just four. Some numbers, like 12, can have even more factor pairs, creating a beautiful mathematical landscape full of possibilities. Just remember, every number is unique and special in its own way.

Yes, a number can have more than 4 factor pairs. The number of factor pairs a number has depends on its prime factorization. For example, a number with a prime factorization of ( p_1^{a_1} \times p_2^{a_2} \times \ldots \times p_n^{a_n} ) will have ( (a_1 + 1) \times (a_2 + 1) \times \ldots \times (a_n + 1) ) factor pairs. So, a number with more than one prime factor raised to a power greater than one can have more than 4 factor pairs.
Oh, dude, totally! A number can have more than 4 factor pairs. In fact, the number of factor pairs a number has depends on how many factors it has. So, like, a number with more factors will have more factor pairs. It's like math, but with extra steps.
12 and 18 have three factor pairs.
The number 18.
composite
There are 3 factor pairs of 63: 63 = 1 x 63 63 = 3 x 21 63 = 7 x 9
Common factor requires more than one number.
