To get 16 using the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4, you can use the following mathematical expression: (4 x 3) + (2 x 1) = 16. This equation follows the order of operations, first multiplying 4 by 3 to get 12, then multiplying 2 by 1 to get 2, and finally adding the results together to equal 16.
The word factor means you take a number [in this case it is 2] and you multiply it by another number to reach your desired numbers [in this case your desired numbers are 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16] So ask yourself 2 times what numbers equals 1 or 2 or 4 or 8 or 16 2x 0.5 = 1 2x 1 = 2 2x 2 = 4 2x 4 = 8 2x 8 = 16 Because a number can be multiplied by 2 and get the numbers you said then this 2 can be called a factor of these numbers.
Numbers having only 2 factors are prime numbers. Their only factors are 1 and themselves. Prime numbers. The only two factors should be 1 and itself.
-17 + 1 -18 + 2 Ect. -16 + -1 -17 + -2 Ect.
15 + 1 = 16 sum 15 - 1 = 14 difference
32, 16, 8, 4, 2 and 1
3-1=2 then 2x2x4=16.
(1+3+4) * 2 = 16
3-1=2 2x2=4 4x4=16 or 3-1=2 2*4=8 8*2=16
only using the numbers once
2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64
2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64
16 has only one prime factor, and that is 2.
The only prime factor of 16 is 2.
No. That is impossible. A prime number is defined as a number that factors only to itself and the number one. A prime number MUST only be "divisible" by 1 and itself to get an integer number. For example, 7 only has 2 factors - 1 and 7. Square numbers are divisible by a number other than 1 and itself. For example, 16 has the factors 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16. 4 squared = 16
16 is a composite number. A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1, 2, and 0. 1, 2, and 0 have a different name.
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 2 is the only prime factor.
16 can have only one square and that is 256.
