The factors of a number are those that can be divided evenly into it.... the factors of 24 are 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 12.
The multiples of a number are those which it can be divided into evenly..... the multiples of 24 are 48, 72, 96, 120 and so on.... endlessly.
Some numbers have no factors other than themselves and 1 - these are prime numbers. All numbers have multiples.
A factor is what goes into a number, a multiple is what a number goes into. 3 is a factor of 9 27 is a multiple of 9.
Factors go into numbers, numbers go into multiples.
15 is both a multiple and a factor of itself.
It can be both. 6 is a factor of 12 and a multiple of 3.
24 and 36
a factor is what you multiply by a multiple is the answer
A factor is what goes into a number, a multiple is what a number goes into. 3 is a factor of 9 27 is a multiple of 9.
Factors go into numbers, numbers go into multiples.
Factors go into numbers, numbers go into multiples.
Factors go into numbers, numbers go into multiples.
Factors go into numbers, numbers go into multiples.
Factors go into numbers, numbers go into multiples.
A multiple is found by multiplying the number. Whereas a factor is what the number can be divided by. For example - multiples of 10 are; 10, 20, 30, 40, ... Factors of 10 are; 1, 2, 5, 10
360 - 18 = 342
It can be either or both. 36 is a factor of 72. 36 is a multiple of 9. 36 is both a factor and a multiple of 36.
The least common factor of any set of numbers is 1.
The factor list will be finite, the multiple list will be infinite.
