If the question is in the context of integers and prime factorisation, then it is the number 1.
If the question is about the product of two real numbers, the answer is when both factors are between 0 and 1, or when one of the factors is greater than 1 and the other is negative.

When one factor is less then 1 is the product greater or less than the other 2 factors?
If there are three factors, then one of them being less than 1 does not imply anything about the product of all three and either of the other two factors. For example, 2 = 0.5*1*4 where the first factor is less than 1. The product 2 is less than one of the other factors but bigger than the last.
Is the product of two mixed numbers less than between or greater than the two factors?
yes because it is greater than 1
When is the product of 2 integers less than or equal than to both of two factors?
That happens when only one of the two integers is negative.
When is the product of two nonzero integers less than or equal of the two factors?
When one of the numbers is positive and the other is negative.
How can you determine from the prime factorization wheather the least common multiple of two numbers is the prouduct of the numbers or is less then the prouduct of two numbers. explain your thinking?
If the two numbers have no common factors (other than 1), then the LCM is equal to the product of the two numbers. If they have some factors in common, then those factors need only be used once when multiplying, so the LCM will be less than the product of the two numbers.
