because 1 x (every number) = (every number) and that makes 1 a factor of (every number)

Because all numbers have a factor of one, and one multiplied by the number itself is the answer. For e.g. 12
It has 1,2,3,4,6 and 12 as factors because 1 times 12 is 12.
Every number has 1 as its factor and 1 is the smallest factor of any number. So least common factor of two or more numbers is always 1. Therefore, least common factor of 23 and 25 is 1.
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 :-)
1 is a factor of ten. This is because 1 times another number is the number itself. Basically, 1 is a factor of all and any number.
No, the GCF of 6 and 7 is 1.
The least common factor of any set of integers is always 1.
