Oh, dude, you're hitting me with the math questions now? Alright, alright, so 23 is a Prime number, which means it can only be divided by 1 and itself. So, technically, the only way to get 23 without multiplying by 1 is just 23 x 1. Math can be a real buzzkill sometimes, huh?

There are two ways to do it with whole numbers:
(23) x (1)
and
(-23) x (-1).
If you want more ways to do it, you have to use fractions or decimals, and then
there are an infinite number of more ways to do it. Here are a few:
11.5 x 2 = 23
5.75 x 4 = 23
5 x 4.6 = 23
0.5 x 46 = 23
2.3 x 10 = 23
3 x 72/3 = 23
6.9 x 31/3 = 23
[ 1 x 23 ] is the only thing that equals 23. [ 1 x 25 ] and [ 5 x 5 ] both equal 25. There's nothing that equals both 23 and 25 .
1 x 207, 3 x 69, 9 x 23 = 207
9 x 23 = 207
1 x 529, 23 x 23 = 529
Duh! (Sigh) here's the answer 23 x 1 = 23 23 x 1 = 23
