For composite numbers, only one string of factors is the longest; the prime factorization.
There can be infinitely many distinct factors.
Nine factors.

If p, q and r are distinct primes and n=pxqxr then n will have 8 factors, all of which will be positive since prime numbers are all positive, which are: n(pqr), pq, pr, qr, p, q, r and 1. Here there were 3 distinct primes so the number of positive factors is 2^3. In general if you had p distinct primes then you would have 2^p positive factors.
