Why is 8 a factor of 32?

Answer 1

4/8=0.5

The factors of a whole number are whole numbers by which the given number can be divided without any remainder. No whole number larger than 4 can be divided into 4, so 8, being larger than 4, cannot be a factor of 4.

Answer 2

Because 8 divides into 32 evenly with no remainder.

Answer 3

8 is not a Prime number, so it can't be a prime factor.

Answer 4

8 is a factor of 32 because 32 is divisible by 8 evenly (a whole number).

Answer 5

Yes.
