Question

______ is a number that can divided evenly by only itself and by the number 1; also called a prime factor
select one of four
multiple\tdividend
prime number\tquotient
remaining attempts: 1

Explanation:

• A "multiple" is a number that can be divided by another number without a remainder, but it's not restricted to only 1 and itself. For example, 6 is a multiple of 2 and 3.
• A "dividend" is the number being divided in a division operation (e.g., in \(10 \div 2\), 10 is the dividend), which has nothing to do with the given definition.
• A "prime number" is defined as a number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself, which matches the description in the question (also called a prime factor when considering factorization).
• A "quotient" is the result of a division operation (e.g., in \(10 \div 2 = 5\), 5 is the quotient), so it doesn't fit the definition.

Answer:

prime Number
