A factor of a number divides it exactly without leaving a remainder, like 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12 all being factors of 12.
Quick revision
Remember these!
- Factor divides a number exactly, no remainder.
- Example: factors of 12 = 1,2,3,4,6,12.
- Multiple: result of multiplying by whole numbers.
- Multiples of 4: 4,8,12,16...
- Every number has at least 2 factors.
- Those are 1 and itself.
- Numbers have infinite multiples.
- This helps fractions and division problems.
