Prime factorizations are unique. No other number will have exactly the same number of prime factors as 28. Multiples of 14 will have some of the same factors.
No. Prime factors are the numbers that make up other numbers, but they have to be prime. Prime factorisation is the process of finding the prime numbers that create a number. This is when you multiply the prime numbers together and the product is the original number. For example: 20 5x4 5x2x2 This process is called prime factorisation. In this case, the prime numbers are 2, 2, and 5.
Usually, but not necessarily and not if they're prime. All prime numbers have the same number of factors.
No - co-prime numbers are pairs of numbers which share no positive integer factors apart from 1. Twin prime numbers are a pair of prime numbers with a difference of 2.
Prime number refers to what they are; prime factor refers to what they do. A number doesn't become a factor until it is multiplied. 2 and 3 are prime numbers. 2 and 3 are prime factors of 6.
Prime numbers have two factors. Prime squares have three factors. Square numbers have an odd number of factors but that number varies.
All numbers have factors. Some factors are prime numbers. These are known as prime factors. Some numbers have some of the same prime factors as other numbers. These are known as common prime factors. 3 is a common prime factor of 12 and 15.
Yes, numbers can have common prime factors.

Example: What are the common prime factors of 120 and 252?Find the prime factorization of each number by breaking it down into the lowest possible numbers that can be multiplied together to make the original number.120 = 2x60 = 2x2x30 = 2x2x2x15 = 2x2x2x3x5252 = 2x126 = 2x2x63 = 2x2x3x21 = 2x2x3x3x7Notice that there are 2 2's and a 3 in each factorization: the common prime factors are 2, 2, and 3.
Usually, but not necessarily and not if they're prime. All prime numbers have the same number of factors.
If the two prime numbers are different: You get the two prime numbers, plus 1, plus the product. For example, if you multiply 2 x 3 = 6, the factors of 6 are 2, 3, 1, and 6. If the two prime numbers are the same: You get the prime number, 1, and the product. For example 2 x 2 = 4. The factors of 4 are 2, 1, 4.
A prime number times a prime number is a composite number. Since prime numbers, except for 2, are odd numbers, a prime number times a prime number is usually an odd number. It will only be an even number if one of the prime numbers is 2. A prime number times a prime number will be a number with four factors unless both prime numbers are the same, in which case it will be a square number with only three factors.
No - co-prime numbers are pairs of numbers which share no positive integer factors apart from 1. Twin prime numbers are a pair of prime numbers with a difference of 2.
All prime squares have three factors.
