There are 6 factors of 32 an even number (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32), but only 4 factors of 33 an odd number (1, 3, 11, 33).
This one example pair of an odd number and an even number contradicts your assertion that odd numbers have more factors than even numbers.
The number of factors of a number depends upon the prime factorisation of the number - even or oddness of the number has no bearing on the number of factors of the number.
If one of the primes (in the factorisation of a number) happens to be 2 (the only even prime), then the number will be even.
If a number's prime factorisation is represented in power format (eg 44 = 22 x 11), then the total number of factors of the number is given by the product of the powers of the primes incremented by one, that is:
number = Î pini
where
pi are the primes
ni are the corresponding powers of the primes
then
number_of_factors = Î (ni + 1)
examples:
The factors of 44 are: 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44
The factors of 1500 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50, 60, 75, 100, 125, 150, 250, 300, 375, 500, 750, 1500
If this question means "in the interval 0 to 16 inclusive, is the sum of the odd numbers the same as the sum of the even numbers ?" then the answer is no. The sum of the even numbers is eight more than the sum of the odd ones.
even numbers have 2,4,6,8,0 in their onesplacefor example:-22 82
The ones digit in an even number can be one of: 0, 2, 4, 6, 8.
The numbers that go into 58 evenly (with no remainder) are called the factors of 58.The only ones are: 1, 2, 29, and 58.
The "ones" place is always the last digit in any number so multiples of 5 always have either 5 or 0 (zero) in the "ones" digit position.
A composite number is a positive integer, which has a positive divisor other than one or itself.
I think its even because in the ones place it has a 2 in the ones place
Except for 5, all of them have more than two factors.
The ones with less than three factors.
List the factors. Cross out the even ones.

List all the factors. Select the ones that are prime numbers.
You appear to asking about numbers such as 15, 25, 35, etc. If this is the case, all of these numbers are divisible by more tham themselves and one. Prime numbers are divisible by only two factors.
Except for 5, all of them have 5 as a factor which makes them have more than two factors.
Other than 5, they are multiples of 5 and have more than two factors.
