The limit is infinity if the factors do not have to be whole numbers. If you stipulate that the factors have to be whole numbers, then, yes, for each number, there is a limit to how many factors it has. For example, the number 4 has only 3 whole-number factors: 1, 2, and 4.
prime factorization each number is a part of the whole
The product will be greater than either of the factors.
Sure, just tell me what the numbers are.
You can quickly find the factors for even numbers 50 to 100 by dividing each number by all possible factors (starting from 2) until reaching the square root of the number. If a number is divisible without a remainder, then it is a factor of that even number. Repeat this process for each even number between 50 and 100.

The three greatest whole numbers less than 200 that each have an odd number of factors are 144, 169 and 196.

360, 420 and 480 each have 24 factors.
The numbers 60, 72, 84, 90, and 96 each have 12 factors.
60, 72, 84, 90 and 96 each have twelve factors.
45, 63, 75 and 99 each have six factors.
The product will be greater than either of the factors.
it is easier to find the prime factorization because you do not have to keep multiplying over and over and over again!!!!
The numbers 60, 72, 84, 90, and 96 each have 12 factors.

-- Cut the whole thing into three identical pieces. -- Each piece is one third of the whole thing. -- If the whole thing is a number, divide the number by 3 to find one third of it.
