Only whole number factors of 33 are 3 and 11...
The factors of a number are numbers that the original number can divide into. For instance, 15 can divide by 5 and 3. Therefore 5 and 3 are both factors of 15. A product is the result of a multiplication of numbers. For example, 3x6 = 18. Thus 18 is the product of 3 and 6.
"Product" is an operation that requires two things - called arguments. You cannot have a product of 3: it has to be the product of 3 and another number.
