Here we will discuss and show you how to figure out which number is a factor of 40, but not a multiple of 27.
The most common way to determine which number is a factor of 40, but not a multiple of 27, is to simply list the factors of 40 and the multiples of 27 so you can compare the two lists.
The answer to "Which number is a factor of 40, but not a multiple of 27?" would be all the numbers that are on the Factors of 40 list, but not on the Multiples of 27 list.
Factors of 40: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40
Multiples of 27: 27, 54, 81, 108, 135...
Answer: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40
Alternatively, you can figure out which number is a factor of 40, but not a multiple of 27, by dividing every factor of 40 by 27. The answer would be all the quotients that are not integers.
