Answer:

Factors are like numbers that are multiplied together to get that number

Using 25:

The factors of 25 are 1,5,25

1*25 = 25 and 5*5 = 25, so they are the factors of 25

Multiples are the products of the specified number and another number

Using 25:

Some of the multiples of 25 are 25, 50, 75, 100 and so on

25*1 = 25, 25*2 = 50, 25*3 = 75, 25*4 = 100, so they are the multiples of 25

Hope this helps!
