Here we will discuss and show you how to figure out which number is a factor of 21, but not a multiple of 16.
The most common way to determine which number is a factor of 21, but not a multiple of 16, is to simply list the factors of 21 and the multiples of 16 so you can compare the two lists.
The answer to "Which number is a factor of 21, but not a multiple of 16?" would be all the numbers that are on the Factors of 21 list, but not on the Multiples of 16 list.
Factors of 21: 1, 3, 7, 21
Multiples of 16: 16, 32, 48, 64, 80...
Answer: 1, 3, 7, 21
Alternatively, you can figure out which number is a factor of 21, but not a multiple of 16, by dividing every factor of 21 by 16. The answer would be all the quotients that are not integers.
