Here we will discuss and show you how to figure out which number is a factor of 48, but not a multiple of 6.
The most common way to determine which number is a factor of 48, but not a multiple of 6, is to simply list the factors of 48 and the multiples of 6 so you can compare the two lists.
The answer to "Which number is a factor of 48, but not a multiple of 6?" would be all the numbers that are on the Factors of 48 list, but not on the Multiples of 6 list.
Factors of 48: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48
Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48...
Answer: 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 16
Alternatively, you can figure out which number is a factor of 48, but not a multiple of 6, by dividing every factor of 48 by 6. The answer would be all the quotients that are not integers.
