What are all of 496's factors?

Find any factor - like 2, then divide by 2, to get the other factor: 2 x 248. Continue finding more factors for the number to the right, until you divided the number into prime factors.


What is the number with the most factors?

There isn't any, and it is quite simple to prove that. Suppose there is a number with the most factors and suppose that number is X. Now consider Y = 2*X. Y has all the factors of X and it has another factor, which is 2. So Y has more factors than X. This contradicts the statement that X has the most factors. Therefore, there is no number with the most factors.


What numbers have more than 2 factors?

All composite numbers have more than two factors. The smallest such number is 4, which is equal to 2 x 2. 4 has three factors: 1, 2, and 4.


What are the factors of 14 and 28 Why is the answer correct How did you get them?

14 28 / \ / \ 7 2 2 14 / \ 2 7 Factors of 14: 7,2 Factors of 28: 2, 2, 7 Factors are prime numbers that are all the product of the original number. 7*2 is 14 and 2*2*7 is 28


How you be sure you get all the factors for a number?

There are ways, but not easy ones.The simpler is to go, very systematically, through all numbers from 2 to the number that you are trying to factorise. Skip numbers only if THEIR factors are not factors of your number.The other is to use prime factorisation. Any number can be broken down into a unit set of factors, some of which may feature more than once.For example, suppose your number is 72. Its prime factorisation is72 = 2*2*2*3*3 = 23*32Here you have 2 different prime factors, the first (= 2) appears 3 times and the second (= 3) appears twice. Remember that 2 and 21 are the same.Calculate all numbers of the form 2x3y where x = 0,1,2,3 and y = 0,1,2. The indices x and y go from 0 to the number of times the prime appears in the factorisation. This set of numbers, 2x3y, will be a complete list of all the factors of your number.

Why is the set of factors of a number not the same as the set of proper factors of that number?

Proper factors of a number do not include 1 or the number itself. For example, all of the factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, and 6, but the proper factors of 6 are 2 and 3.


Do all even numbers have two factors and why?

Every number except the number 1 has at least two factors, 1 and the number itself. Prime numbers have exactly two factors and composite numbers have more than two factors. All even numbers except the number 2 are composite numbers and have more than two factors. The number 2 is prime and its only factors are 1 and 2.
