Factor

The divisors of 10 illustrated with Cuisenaire rods: 1, 2, 5, and 10

In mathematics, a divisor of an integer ${\displaystyle n}$, also called a factor of ${\displaystyle n}$, is an integer ${\displaystyle m}$ that may be multiplied by some integer to produce ${\displaystyle n}$. In this case, one also says that ${\displaystyle n}$ is a multiple of ${\displaystyle m.}$ An integer ${\displaystyle n}$ is divisible by another integer ${\displaystyle m}$ if ${\displaystyle m}$ is a divisor of ${\displaystyle n}$; this implies dividing ${\displaystyle n}$ by ${\displaystyle m}$ leaves no remainder.
