This section includes explanations of what Factors Multiples are, prime numbers and composite numbers.Factors : Factors are the numbers that are multiplied to give a product.
Example : Factors of 10 are 1,2,5,10 because 10 is exactly divisible by 1,2,5,10.
Multiples : They are the products you get when you multiply a number by 1,2,3,4 and so on.
In short we can say that, Multiples are nothing but the table of a given number.
Example : The first 5 multiples of 6 are the table of 6 upto 5.
= 6, 12, 18, 24, 30.
If a is divisible by b, then b is a factor of a, and a is a multiple of b.
Example : 30 = 3 × 10, so 3 and 10 are factors of 30 and 30 is a multiple of 3 and 10.
Properties of Factors Multiples
| Property 1 | 1 is a factor of every number. Example : 34 = 1 x 34 |
| Property 2 | Every number is a factor of itself. Example : 18 = 18 x 1 |
| Property 3 | Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number. Factors of 6 are 1,2,3,6. Each factors divides 12. |
| Property 4 | Every factor of a number is less than or equal to the number. |
| Property 5 | Factors of a given number are finite. Example factors of 6 are 1,2,3 and 6 only. |
| Property 6 | Every multiple of a number is greater than or equal to that number. Example: Multiple of 5 = 5,10,15,20,… |
| Property 7 | Every number is a multiple of itself. |
| Property 8 | The number of multiples of a given number is infinite. |
Common Factors or Multiples : Those factors or multiples which are common among the factors (or multiples) of two or more numbers are known as common factors (or multiples).
