Answer: The factors of 19 are 1 and 19. 19 is a prime number.

Explanation:

To find the factors of 19, we need to find all the whole numbers that can be multiplied to equal 19. The factors of 19 are 1 and 19. Since 19 only has two factors, 1 and 19, it is a prime number. To confirm this, we can also check if 19 is divisible by any numbers other than 1 and itself. Since it is not, we can conclude that 19 is a prime number.
