<p>To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1 is the multiplication method. Step 1: Multiply 1 by 1, 1 × 1 = 1. Therefore, the positive factor pair of 1 is: (1, 1). For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.</p>

<p>Factors: The numbers that divide the given number without leaving a remainder are called factors. For example, the factor of 1 is 1. Prime Number: A number that has exactly two distinct positive divisors: 1 and itself. Note that 1 is not a prime number. Multiple: A multiple of a number is the product of that number and an integer. For example, 1 is a multiple of 1. Division Method: A method to find factors by dividing the number by integers until the remainder is zero. Multiplication Method: A method to find factors by identifying number pairs that multiply to the given number. For example, 1 × 1 = 1.</p>
