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.
1, 2, 3, 4, 8
6, 12, 30, 60
8 is not a multiple of 3.
They have a converse relationship. A factor is a number that divides into another, with no remainders. A multiple is something that can be multiplied by another number, to reach the original number that you had. Thus: Original number / a factor = a multiple Multiple * (the correct factor) = original number. "the correct factor", because most number have more than one factor. But only one factor * multiple will give the original number.
12 is.
Any multiple of 12.
6
The number 12 has 4 and 6 as factors so 12 is a multiple of 4 and 6.
Which of the following is a composite number between 57,47,17,2
A factor goes into a number. A number goes into a multiple. They have an inverse relationship in the sense that if A is a multiple of B, then B is a factor of A.
3.
12 is a multiple of 3, and 3 is a factor of 12.
Factors divide into a number. A number divides into multiples. 3 is a factor of 6. 12 is a multiple of 6. 6 is both a factor and a multiple of 6.
In mathematics, a factor is a number that divides another number without leaving a remainder. A multiple is a number that can be divided evenly by another number. In this case, 6 is both a factor and a multiple of itself, as it can be divided evenly by 1, 2, 3, and 6.
Only if the number is a multiple of 12.
No, 9 is a multiple of 3 but not a factor of 12.
