The complete list of factors of 52 is: 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, and 52 (all these factors divide exactly into 52).

a prime number has 2 factors, 1 and the number itself. ex: 11 is a prime number because the only factors of 11 are 1 and 11. The number 6 is not prime because it has four factors: 1, 2, 3 and 6
