2 factors, but a Prime number has only two factors (itself and one).
Note that 1 is not considered to be a prime number.

Does every positive integer greater than 10 have an even number of factors?
No.
Does each natural number greater than one have its own unique prime factorization?
In number theory, the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, also called the unique factorization theorem or the unique-prime-factorization theorem, states that every integergreater than 1 either is prime itself or is the product of prime numbers, and that this product is unique, up to the order of the factors.
What are the proper factors of the number one?
In the context of primes and factoriation, every counting number is a factor.
Does every number have a proper factor that can be multiplied to get another proper factor?
No, prime numbers do not have proper factors.
Is every multiple of a number is always greater then the number itself?
Not with negative numbers. -10 is a multiple of -2.
What two numbers do every number greater than 1 have as factors?
Every number greater than 1 has the two factors 1 and the number itself.
Does every positive integer greater than 20 have an even number of factors?
No. They have different number of factors
Every natural number greater than 1 is either a prime or can be written as the product of prime factors Except for the order of the factors they can be written in one and only one way?
Exactly.
What is a number greater than one with more than two factors?
Every number greater than 1 has 1 and the number itself as factors. If it has no other factors besides these two factors, it is a prime number. If it has more factors than 1 and itself, it is a composite number.
Does every positive integer greater than 10 have an even number of factors?
No.
What two numbers does every number greater than 1 have as factors?
' 1 ' and itself.
What number as at least 2 factors?
Every positive integer greater than 1.
What is prime factors numbers?
Every positive integer greater than 1 can be expressed as the product of a unique set of prime factors. The count of these factors is the prime factors number for the number.
Prove that if every even natural number greater than 2 is the sum of two primes then every odd natural number greater than 5 is the sum of three primes?
Given an arbitrary odd natural number greater than five, x, let y = x - 3, then y is an even number greater than 2. By assumption we have that y is the sum of two primes, say y1 and y2, but then x = y1 + y2 + 3 (which is the sum of three primes).
Is every terminating decimal also a natural number?
No because natural numbers are positive whole numbers greater than 0
Does every number have prime factorization?
Every number has at least one factor, the number 1.Every number greater than 1 has at least two factors, 1 and itself.Any number with exactly 2 factors is prime.Any number with more than 2 factors is composite; in this case it can be factorised completely into primes.The number 1 has only one factor. It is therefore neither prime nor composite.
Is every natural number a whole number?
Yes, every natural number is a whole number.
