This document introduces various number concepts including odd numbers, even numbers, factors, and multiples. It defines odd numbers as those that cannot be grouped equally in twos, and even numbers as those that can. Factors are numbers that divide another number with no remainder. Multiples are the results of multiplying a number by 1, 2, 3, and so on, and are endless for any given number. Examples are provided to illustrate each concept.

 Numbers
 Odd Numbers
 Even Numbers
 Factors
 Multiples
 Assessment

3.  Numbers
 A Number is a Mathematical object used to count, measure and label.
 Example: Natural Numbers (i.e.) 1,2,3,4,5…
 Natural Numbers are divided into two types
1. Odd Numbers
2. Even Numbers

4.  Odd Numbers
 A number is called an odd number if it cannot be grouped equally in twos.
1, 3, 5, 7, …, 73, 75, …, 2009,… are odd numbers.
 All odd numbers end with anyone of the digits 1, 3, 5, 7 or 9.
 Example: 161, 173, 155, 177, 199

5.  Even Numbers
A number is called an even number if it can be grouped equally in twos. 2,
4, 6, 8, ..., 68, 70, . . , 4592,... are even numbers.
All even numbers end with anyone of the digits 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8.
Example: 200, 202, 204, 208

6.  Factors
A factor is a number that divides the given number exactly and gives remainder
zero.
Every number has two factors that is 1 and the number itself.
Every factor of a number is less that or equal to that number.
Example : find the factors of 8 and 20
We know that,
8 = 2 X 4;
20 = 2X10; 4X5.
Factors of 8 = 2 and 4
Factors of 20 = 2, 4, 5 and 10
.

7.  Multiples
Every multiple of a number is greater than or equal to that number.
Multiples of a number are endless.
Example: Look at the multiplication table of (say) 7:
1 x 7 = 7
2 x 7 = 14
3 x 7 = 21
4 x 7 = 28
5 x 7 = 35 ...
We say that the numbers 7, 14, 21, 28, 35,... are multiples of 7 and they are endless.
