Test: Factors, multiples, and primes - Question 1

Which of these is not a factor of 80?

Detailed Solution: Question 1

80 ÷ 3 = 26.666, which is not a whole number, so 3 is not a factor of 80.

Test: Factors, multiples, and primes - Question 2

What do you call a number that divides exactly into two or more given numbers?

Detailed Solution: Question 2

A common divisor of two or more numbers is a number that divides each of them exactly, so it is called a common divisor.

Test: Factors, multiples, and primes - Question 3

Which of these sets of numbers are all factors of 80?

Detailed Solution: Question 3

Option A (2, 4, 8, 16) contains all factors of 80, as 80 ÷ 2 = 40, 80 ÷ 4 = 20, 80 ÷ 8 = 10, and 80 ÷ 16 = 5. Option B includes 12 (80 ÷ 12 = 6.666), Option C includes 18 (80 ÷ 18 = 4.444), and Option D includes 14 (80 ÷ 14 = 5.714), which are not whole numbers.

Test: Factors, multiples, and primes - Question 4

Which of these is a factor of 66?

Detailed Solution: Question 4

66 ÷ 3 = 22, a whole number, so 3 is a factor. However, 66 ÷ 4 = 16.5, 66 ÷ 8 = 8.25, and 66 ÷ 12 = 5.5, which are not whole numbers, so 4, 8, and 12 are not factors.

Test: Factors, multiples, and primes - Question 5

Which of the following is a factor pair of 32?

Detailed Solution: Question 5

A factor pair of 32 is two numbers whose product is 32.
For option B: 2 × 16 = 32, which is correct.
Option A: 2 × 14 = 28
Option C: 2 × 18 = 36
Option D: 2 × 20 = 40

Test: Factors, multiples, and primes - Question 6

Is 4 a factor of 21?

Detailed Solution: Question 6

If you divide 4 into 21 the answer is 5.25. Because the answer is NOT a whole number, 4 is NOT a factor of 21.

Test: Factors, multiples, and primes - Question 7

Which of the following numbers is a prime number?

Detailed Solution: Question 7

A prime number is a number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself. 23 fits this definition as it can only be divided evenly by 1 and 23.

Test: Factors, multiples, and primes - Question 8

Which of these is a factor of 33?

Detailed Solution: Question 8

33 ÷ 11 = 3, a whole number, so 11 is a factor. However, 33 ÷ 7 = 4.714, 33 ÷ 9 = 3.666, and 33 ÷ 13 = 2.538, which are not whole numbers, so 7, 9, and 13 are not factors.

Test: Factors, multiples, and primes - Question 9

What is the perimeter of a rectangle with length 12 cm and breadth 7 cm?

Detailed Solution: Question 9

The perimeter of a rectangle is 2 × (length + breadth). Here length + breadth = 12 cm + 7 cm = 19 cm, so perimeter = 2 × 19 cm = 38 cm.

Test: Factors, multiples, and primes - Question 10

Which of the following numbers is NOT a multiple of 9?

Detailed Solution: Question 10

48 is not completely divided by 9 and leaves a remainder of 3. Thus, 48 is not a multiple of 9
