Understanding Factors: Finding Factors and Using Factor Pairs

The video tutorial explains the concept of factors, which are numbers that divide another number exactly without leaving a remainder. It uses examples, such as finding the factors of 4 and 12, to illustrate the process. The tutorial also introduces the concept of factor pairs, which are pairs of numbers that multiply to give the original number. The video emphasizes the importance of understanding factors as they are used in various mathematical topics and encourages practice to master the concept.
