Here we will discuss and show you how to figure out which number is a factor of 40, but not a multiple of 6.
The most common way to determine which number is a factor of 40, but not a multiple of 6, is to simply list the factors of 40 and the multiples of 6 so you can compare the two lists.
The answer to "Which number is a factor of 40, but not a multiple of 6?" would be all the numbers that are on the Factors of 40 list, but not on the Multiples of 6 list.
Factors of 40: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40
Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42...
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 6, by dividing every factor of 40 by 6. The answer would be all the quotients that are not integers.
