False. If s is a factor of 16, then the greatest common factor (GCF) of s and 16 would be s, not 16. The GCF is the largest number that divides both numbers evenly, which in this case would be s since it is a factor of 16. So, the statement is false.
D is the choice that is not true.
No. The opposite is true: the gcf of an odd number and an even number is always odd. All the factors of an odd number are odd; or to put it another way: If a number has an even factor, the number itself must be even. Thus the only common factors between odd and even numbers must be odd.
The statement that the rank of product of two matrices cannot exceed the rank of either factor is a true statement. The rank of a matrix is the largest number of linearly independent rows or columns. The column rank is equal to the row rank in every matrix.
False. Factors divide evenly with no remainder.
It is true.
it is true because a factor of a number is a number that divides the supplied number perfectly with no remainders. This includes the actual number. For instance, consider the number 14. The digits 1, 2, 7, and 14 are 14 factors.
Yes, that is true.
The integer 1 is a whole number that is neither a prime or a composite number because it has only one factor which is itself.
It must have at least one more factor in addition to '1' and itself.
the largest amount of a population that can be supported by an are is its limiting factor
As stated, that is false. Every number is not a factor of 1. 1 is a factor of every nonzero whole number.
Yes, that is the definition of a prime number, having only two possible factors, one and the prime number itself.
No; this statement is not true. The number 6 is an example of why this is not true.
That's true.
Yes.
No, this statement is not true. 21 is an example of why this is not true.
