Let call this number p and its factors q1,q2,q3,q4,q5 (qi are not necessary different)
We know that there can't be more than 5 factors as 2^5=32 and 2^6=64 and 2 is the lowest possible factor.
Lets try with q1=q2=...=q5=2 then p=2^5=32
If q1=q2=...=q4=2 and q5 = 3 then p=2^4 x 3 = 48
If q1=q2=...=q3=2 and q4=q5 = 3 then p=2^3 x 3^2 = 72 > 50
similarly p=2^2 x 3^3=108 > 50, p=2 x 3^4=162 > 50
If q1=q2=...=q3=2 and q4= 3 and q5=5 then p=2^3 x 3 x 5 > 2^3 x 3^2 > 50
The tries can continue with 2,3,5,7,11 but the number will be greater than 50 each time
So the numbers with most factor between 1 and 50 are 32 and 48
The number between 1 and X that has the most factors has log2(X) factors
360, 420 and 480 each have 24 factors.
1 is the number less than fifty with the fewest number of factors. All other numbers have at least two factors (1, and the integer itself).
180: it has 18 factors.
It doesn't. 48 has the most factors of positive numbers under 50.
All numbers have factors. Some numbers have some of the same factors as other numbers. These are known as common factors. When put in a list, the largest of these is known as the greatest common factor, or GCF. Some people refer to this as the highest common factor, or HCF. Calling it the most common factor would be confusing, since people tend to think of "most common" as something that happens frequently.
There are four odd numbers less that 100 that have 6 factor. This does not compare with even numbers that have 12 factors!
60, 72, 84, 90 and 96 each have twelve factors.
The numbers 60, 72, 84, 90, and 96 each have 12 factors.
The numbers 60, 72, 84, 90, and 96 each have 12 factors.
Of the numbers up to 50, 48 has the most factors.
840
the number 90 has the most factors under 100
12 and 18
360, 420 and 480 each have 24 factors.
I wrote out all the factors of all the numbers from 1 to 100 and counted them.
100... pretty much most high numbers...
The most factors any odd number less than 100 has is 6. There are 4 numbers which have 6 factors:45, 63, 75 & 99.
