What are the factors of 6 and 3?
Factors of 6 1,2,3,6 Factors of 3 1,3 (this mean that 3 is a prime number)
What is the smallest number that has exactly nine factors?
36. (Factors are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 36.)
What is the next number after 6 that has exactly four factors?
There is no such number. Any prime number raised to the third power has exactly four factors. For example, 23 = 8; its factors are 1, 2, 4, 8 (1, 2, 22, 23). Since - as is well-known - there is no largest prime number, there is no largest number that has exactly four factors.
What the factor of 6?
The prime factors of 6 are 2 x 3. A factor is any number that the original number can divide by evenly. In this case the factors of 6 would be 1, 2, 3 and 6 as these are the only numbers 6 can divide by. Prime means a number has only 2 factors (1 and itself). Therefore the only prime factors of 6 are 2 and 3.
Does 12 have exactly three factors?
