To multiply with more than two factors, you can use at least three numbers that it would take to multiply to get the larger number. For example, the number 50, with two factors can be 1X50, 2X25, or 5X10. But if you are asked for more than two factors, you could do this: 2X5X5 Factor 72 using more than two factors: 2X2X2X3X3
