If you mean the smallest two factors, they are 1 and 2.
it always has at least 2 factorsI need to disagree on this one, since the number 1 only has one factor.Can you guess, which factor it does have :-)
36. (Factors are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 36.)
The only number that has 8 and 5 as multiples is 1. If you meant factors, try 400.
Every number is divisible by 1. Including negative numbers, that's an infinite list. There is no smallest.

Well, honey, the smallest number with 6 factors is 12. You see, it has 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12 as factors, making a grand total of 6 factors. So, there you have it, sweetie, 12 is the winner in the smallest number with 6 factors competition.
The smallest factor of any positive integer is 1.

6. Factors are 1, 2, 3, and 6.
How about 6 whose factors are 1, 2, 3 and 6

The smallest factor is 1 because 3 is a prime number making its only factors 3 and 1.
That number is 60.
The factors of 4 are 1, 2, and 4 .
