Answer 1

a "factor" is a unit of measurement relating to FTL (faster than light) travel, as in "ahead Warp factor 2, mr Sulu". Warp factor 24 is a theoretical limit that has never been reached, but when it is time will stop, so make sure that you're doing something enjoyable at the time.

Answer 2

The factors of a number are the numbers that divide evenly into the original number.

Unless you know the factors of numbers off by heart, follow this procedure to find the factors. Starting at 1, divide the original number by count up in sequence and see if you get a whole number or a decimal number.

X/a=b
a=1, 2, 3, ...

For the factors of 24:

24 / 1 =24
24 / 2 =12
24 / 3 =8
24 / 4 =6
24 / 5 =4.8
24 / 6 =4
...

You can stop dividing when "a" equals a previous "b". See how I stopped when a=6, because 24/4=6.

Looking at the above sequence, which values of "a" produce whole number "b" (no decimal). These values of "a" and "b" are called the factors.

Factors of 24 are:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6 ,8 ,12, 24

Note: 1 is a factor of all numbers, because anything divided by one is itself. However, math tends to ignore 1 as a factor.

Another note, if a number has no factors other than 1 and itself, it is called "prime"

Answer 3

Well, what numbers do you multiply together to get 24?
1 x 24
2 x 12
3 x 8
4 x 6
All the numbers above are the factors of 24. They are in a u shape as you can see. After 4, the next one is 6, then 8. You can't use 7 to divide 24 properly, can you? These factors must be intergers, which are numbers that have no decimal points.

Answer 4

Factors are what are multiplied to get a number.

1 x 4 = 4
2 x 2 = 4

So 1, 2, and 4 are factors.

1 x 24 = 24
2 x 12 = 24
3 x 8 = 24
4 x 6 = 24

So 1, 2, 3, 4, 24,12, 8, and 6 are the factors of 24.

Answer 5

A factor is any number that can be used to multiply with another to achieve the number in question. And since the factor can be used to multiply, it can also be used to divide. Factors for 24 are:1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24.

1 x 24 = 24
2 x 12 = 24
3 x 8 = 24
4 x 6 = 24
6 x 4 = 24

Answer 6

im 10 so im learning 2.

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24.

the proper factors of 24 r....

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12,. just no 24.

a factor is something that can be multiplied by a number to equal a the number you want. like in your case 24.

a proper factor is all the factors EXCEPT for the number you are finding the factors.

Answer 7

factor are numbers that can be multipled that total the number you are factoring. example 24 1x24=24 2x12=24 so your factors for 24 are 1 and 24, 2 and 12, 3 and 8, 4 and 6

Answer 8

anything under 24 that can be divided into 24 (as a whole number)

as with the other replys - 1 & 24, 2 & 12 , 3 & 8, 4 & 6,

Answer 9

dang people last time i checked we had to go to school to learn these types of things. i know u can get anything off the net know adays but if she just has to come on yahoo and ask how is she ever going to learn to do anything on the net excpet go to yahoo which she probably has as her home page.oh yeah and by the way stay in school and dont skip anymore english or math classes good not goo and if u didnt skip math u would know what a factor and integers are. and how to find them.

Answer 10

A factor is an integer which evenly divides a number without leaving a remainder. So for 24 the factors are 4,6, 8,3, 2,12, 24, and 1.
