Question

We know 15 x 3 = 45.

So, which of the following statements are also true?
Choose all answers that apply
D) 3 is a multiple of 45
C) 15 is a factor of 45
E) All of the Above
B) 45 is a multiple of 15
A) 45 is a factor of 15

Answer 1

B, C

Explanation:

A) No, factors of 15 = 1, 3, 5, 15... so 45 is not a factor of 15

B) yes, 45 is the third multiple of 15 ( 15×3=45)

C) yes, factor of 45 is the number that divides 45 without leaving any remainders (45÷15=3), therefore 15 is a factor of 45

D) No, multiples must be bigger in value than the actual number because( a multiple of 45) means, the number we get when we multiply 45 by an integer... Here we can't multiply an integer by 45 and get the answer 3
