A divisor is the number that does the dividing... FOr example: 6/3=2 (/ represents the division symbol) 3 is the divisor... A multiple is kind of like a pattern with times tables.... for example, 3,6, 9, 12,15.18,21 etc. 6,9,12,15,18, and 21 are all divisible by three.

Factor divisor multiple product divisible by statements to make a mathematical sentence?
A product (multiple) is divisible by a factor (divisor)
Is any divisor of a whole number is greater than any multiple of a whole number?
9, a divisor of 18, is greater than 4, a multiple of 2.
When division of 2 numbers leaves a remainder 0then the dividend is called the of the divisor?
It is called a multiple of the divisor.
What is the highest common multiple of 21 and 84?
The highest common multiple of 21 and 84 is infinity. The least common multiple, on the other hand, is 84, while the greatest common divisor is 21.
What divisors give you a remainder of 24?
All divisors greater than 24, ie 25, 26, 27, ... can give a remainder of 24 when divided into something, as long as that something is 24 greater than a multiple of the divisor being used.The largest remainder any divisor can give is one less than the divisor itself - otherwise another chunk of the divisor can be removed and one added to the (integer part of the) quotient.
What is the difference between a divisor and a multiple?
3 x 2 = 6 ... So 6 is a multiple of 3, (and 6 is a multiple of 2), because 3 can be multiplied by an integer (whole number) to equal 6.6 / 3 = 2 ... So 3 is a divisor of 6, (and 2 is a divisor of 6), because 6 can be divided by 3 to equal an integer.
What is the difference between a divisor and dividend?
Divisor: the number by which a dividend is divided Dividend: a number to be divided

What is the difference between MCD'S and LCD's?
I think you meant LCD's and GCD's. GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) It is the largest positive integer that divides the numbers without a remainder. LCD (Lowest Common Denominator) It is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of the denominators.
What is the difference of greatest common factor and the greatest common divisor?
No difference.
