What is a factor?
"Factors" are the numbers you multiply to get another number. For instance, factors of 15 are 3 and 5, because 3×5 = 15, or 1 and 15, 1 x 15 = 15
A factor is a number written in word form
"Factors" tell you facts about all the numbers in the world
Which statement is true?
Some numbers have more than one factorization (more than one way of being factored). For instance, 12 can be factored as 1×12, 2×6, or 3×4.
A number that can ONLY be factored by itself or 1 is a "composite" number

Numbers bigger than 5 ending in 0,2,4,5,6,8 cannot be prime numbers.
True
False
All even numbers bigger than 2 (>2) are composite numbers
True
False
Zero is not a composite number, because I cannot get a product from any multiplication of two or more prime numbers that will give me zero.
True
False
If I add the digits of a number and I can divide the result by three without a remainder, then the number is divisible (can be divided) by three.
One example could be 15:
1+5=6 6 divides by 3 with no remainder this means 15 divides by 3 3x5=15
Is this true for all number whose digits sum up to a number divisible by 3?
Yes
No
If I add the digits of a number and I can divide the result by 9 without a remainder, then the number is divisible (can be divided) by 9. Example 18: 1+8=9 (9 divides by 9, so 18 divides by nine). Does this work for all numbers where digits sum up to 9?
Yes
No
