Factor of a number is always equal to or less than the number.
So 7 can't be factor of 2 because 7 is greater than 2.
One way to answer this question is by revisiting the definition of factor:
Factor: A number or algebraic expression that divides another number or expression with no remainder.
Dividing 2 by 7, we get
2 = 7 X 0 + 2(we have, here, 2 as a remainder)
which clearly shows that 7 is not a factor of 2.

How do you find the prime factorization of 3024?
The process of prime factorisation is one of repeated division by primes, while obtaining a quotient without a remainder, until the process yields a quotient of 1 3024 ÷ 2 = 1512 ................................. 2 is a prime factor of 3024 1512 ÷ 2 = 756 ................................... 2 is a prime factor of 3024 756 ÷ 2 = 378 ..................................... 2 is a prime factor of 3024 378 ÷ 2 = 189 ..................................... 2 is a prime factor of 3024 189 is not divisible by 2 189 ÷ 3 = 63 ....................................... 3 is a prime factor of 3024 63 ÷ 3 = 21 ......................................... 3 is a prime factor of 3024 21 ÷ 3 = 7 ........................................... 3 is a prime factor of 3024 7 is not divisible by 3 7 ÷ 7 = 1 ............................................. 7 is a prime factor of 3024 So the prime factors of 3024 are 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3 and 7
What is a factor of 4 and a factor of 6?
1, 2, 3, 61, 7
What is the least common factor of 35 and 28?
12 = 2*2*3 28 = 2*2*7 35 = 5*7 In the above factorisations: The factor 2 appears at most twice The factor 3 appears at most once The factor 5 appears at most once The factor 7 appears at most once So LCM = 2*2*3*5*7 = 420
What is the expression of 7 plus 14 using greatest common factor?
It is 7*(1 + 2).
