Which number is a factor of 8 but not a multiple of 4?

Asked by softballgirl6

Answer (3)

The factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8. The first few multiples of 4 are 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20.
The factors of 8 that are multiples of 4 are 4, and 8. Therefore, the factors of 8 that are not multiples of 4 are 1 and 2.
Hope this helps! :)

2 is a factor of 8 and 4 however it is not a multiple of either so the answer is 2

The number 2 is a factor of 8, and it is not a multiple of 4. Other factors such as 1 also meet the criteria, but 2 is specifically asked for. Therefore, 2 is the answer.
