Answer:

a. Factor (divisor).  

b. Factor (divisor).  

c. Multiple.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the algebraic expression;

28 = 7 * 4

We can re-write the expression as;

1. [tex] \frac {28}{4} = 7[/tex]

2. [tex] \frac {28}{7} = 4[/tex]

Hence, we can deduce the following points from the above algebraic expression;

a) With respect to 28, 4 represents a factor or divisor.

b) With respect to 28, 7 represents a factor or divisor.

c) With respect to each of the numbers 7 and 4, 28 represents a multiple.
