Is 2 a factor of 73 tell why
No because 2 cannot go into an odd number
No. 2 is not divisible by 73, because if you divide 73 by 2, you'll end up with an answer of \(36\frac{1}{2}\). 73 is a prime number, meaning it's a number that is greater than 1. In this case, its only factors are 1 and itself.
