There are four odd numbers less that 100 that have 6 factor. This does not compare with even numbers that have 12 factors!
The product is also a whole number. If the (number of positive factors) minus the (number of negative factors) is zero or an even number, then the product is positive. Otherwise the product is negative.
3 consecutive numbers cannot be prime factors. Any three consecutive numbers would include at least one even number. The only even prime number is 2, and (2,3,4) doesn't qualify.
Square numbers have an odd number of factors, all others have an even number. In this context, primes can either be considered as having 0 factors (an even number) or 2 factors - 1 and itself, again, an even number.
The square of every positive or negative even whole number is a positive even whole number. The square of every positive or negative odd whole number is a positive odd whole number. There are an infinite number of each kind.
what whole number will 8 always divide by?
yes 22 is a whole number it has more than two factors even 27
Any whole number can be a factor. 3 and 7 are factors of 21, for example.
no because 1 only has 0 and its self. :D
Yes, it is. Any whole number times an even number will be even. This is because whole numbers can be represented as the product of their prime factors. Every even number contains 2 as a prime factor (thereby excluding all even numbers above 2 from being prime.) Additionally, the product of any two numbers is equal to the product of their prime factors. This means that the result of multiplying an even number by a whole number will always have a prime factor of 2, making it an even number.
The product is also a whole number. If the (number of positive factors) minus the (number of negative factors) is zero or an even number, then the product is positive. Otherwise the product is negative.
No. Consider 15: 1,3,5,15 Every positive whole number has an even number of factors, unless the number is a perfect square.
Yes, they do. Factors come in pairs. When a number is squared it is only one factor. Example: 16 2x8 = 2 factors 4x4 = 1 factor 1x16 = 2 factors Total = 5 factors *** That's true of integers (whole numbers) that are perfect squares. It turns out that every whole number has an even number of factors, but if the number is a perfect square, then two of them are the same number, so there appear to be an odd number of them.
The number 26 is an integer, whole number. It is a positive number and it is even. Also, because it has more factors than itself and one, it is a composite number.
Look at the last digit. If it is even, the whole number is even. If it is odd, the whole number is odd.
2 is an even number with only 2 factors.
3 consecutive numbers cannot be prime factors. Any three consecutive numbers would include at least one even number. The only even prime number is 2, and (2,3,4) doesn't qualify.
12 is an even number and it is also a composite number because it has more than two factors
