Is the greatest common factor of any 2 odd numbers odd?
Not only can they, but they must. An odd number cannot have an even factor. So none of the factors of either of the two odd numbers can be even and so the GCF is made up of only odd factors and so it must be odd.
Is the GCF of any two numbers always odd and why?
The GCF of any two odd numbers is always odd because odd numbers don't have any even factors. The GCF of any two even numbers is always even because even numbers are divisible by two and any common factors would have at least one two in common. The GCF of an even and an odd number is odd because odd numbers don't have any even factors.

Both. 9 has three factors. 11 has two factors.
Do even numbers always have more factors than odd numbers?
Even numbers do not necessarily have more factors than odd numbers. For example, the number 6 has 4 factors, 1, 2, 3 and 6. However, the number 63 has 1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 63 as its factors. We can see that 63 has more factors than 6. On the other hand, 3 has just 2 factors, 1 and 3. This means that the whether a number has many factors is not related to if it is odd or even.
