factor is a quantity that divides the given expression without leaving remainder

eg: 3 is a factor of 6 since it divides 6
(x-1) is a factor of (x^2 - 1) for the same reason

factor is normally the "multiplication factor"

Factors are the numbers that are multiplied together to get the answer, which is called product.
