Here we will discuss and show you how to figure out which number is a factor of 3, but not a multiple of 3.
The most common way to determine which number is a factor of 3, but not a multiple of 3, is to simply list the factors of 3 and the multiples of 3 so you can compare the two lists.
The answer to "Which number is a factor of 3, but not a multiple of 3?" would be all the numbers that are on the Factors of 3 list, but not on the Multiples of 3 list.
Factors of 3: 1, 3
Multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15...
Answer: 1
Alternatively, you can figure out which number is a factor of 3, but not a multiple of 3, by dividing every factor of 3 by 3. The answer would be all the quotients that are not integers.
