No.
12 has several :1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12
13, which is greater has only 1 and 13.
and the greater number does not have to be a prime for this to be true:
14 has 1, 2, 7 and 14.
The greater of two numbers is 7 more than the lesser Three times the greater number is 5 more than 4 times the lesser number Find the numbers?
7

5.1 is greater than 5.01
Lesser
Not always but on average, yes.
No. For example, 8 has 4 factors (1, 2, 4 and 8) but 9 has only 3 (1, 3 and 9).
The greater of two numbers is 7 more than the lesser Three times the greater number is 5 more than 4 times the lesser number Find the numbers?
When you take away the lesser number from the greater number, you find the difference between the two numbers. This result represents how much larger the greater number is compared to the lesser one. Mathematically, if ( a ) is the greater number and ( b ) is the lesser number, the operation can be expressed as ( a - b ). The outcome will always be a non-negative value.
Numbers closer to zero can be either greater or lesser depending on what other numbers they are compared to.
When that number is a factor of the greater one.
No, the lesser.
50.01 and 50.02

When one of the numbers is a multiple of the other, the greater is the LCM and the lesser is the GCF of that set.
