Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Factor! at none against The Number Challenge's shown. Factor! also leads on ratings volume (29 vs 1) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). The Number Challenge's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
