If you know the prime factorization of a number, you can find out the total number of factors.
Example: 210
21 x 31 x 51 x 71 = 210
Add one to the exponents and multiply them.
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16, the total number of factors.
You know that 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 are factors. You need three more to get halfway.
2 x 3 = 6
2 x 5 = 10
2 x 7 = 14
Divide all those numbers into 210.
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 14, 15, 21, 30, 35, 42, 70, 105, 210
How to know that you found all the factors for example my teacher taught me that when u reach a double diget number that is all the factors. ( 6x6)-~ double diget number
When all the factors are prime.
There will be an odd number of different factors.
43 has only two factors : 1 and 43. Any number with only two factors, ie. 1 and itself, is a prime number. Factors are whole numbers which the original number is divisble by.
I don't know if it's the smallest, but 94,143,178,827 has 24 factors.
To know that a number is prime you need to know that it has no factors other than 1 and the number itself.To know that a number is composite you only need to know one factor other than the number itself or 1.
You don't.If you know just one factor, other than 1 and the number itself, you will know that the number is composite.A prime has only two factors: 1 and itself. So all the factors is no big deal.

No, an odd number can have any number of factors. There is no limit but you do know that the number 2 is not one of those factors.
When all the factors are prime.
There will be an odd number of different factors.
It has more than two factors.
Yes, you do. And know them well, or else you'll get it wrong! Well, not exactly. To determine that a number is prime you need to know that the number has exactly two factors, which means that there are no other factors. You know that a number is composite by finding just one factor that is neither one nor the number itself.
You know that 7 is a prime number because it only has two factors.
But you do know the factors of prime numbers. Every prime number has two factors: one and the number itself.
All of the factors are prime.
Well,I know that 9999 is one number:)
