Factors are the numbers that divide any given number evenly without a remainder. In daily life, we use factors for tasks like sharing items equally, arranging things, etc. In this topic, we will learn about the factors of 1380, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1380 evenly are known as factors of 1380.
A factor of 1380 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 1380 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 23, 30, 46, 60, 69, 92, 115, 138, 230, 276, 345, 460, 690, and 1380.
Negative factors of 1380: -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -10, -12, -15, -20, -23, -30, -46, -60, -69, -92, -115, -138, -230, -276, -345, -460, -690, and -1380.
Prime factors of 1380: 2, 3, 5, and 23.
Prime factorization of 1380: 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 23.
The sum of factors of 1380: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 10 + 12 + 15 + 20 + 23 + 30 + 46 + 60 + 69 + 92 + 115 + 138 + 230 + 276 + 345 + 460 + 690 + 1380 = 3960
Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:
To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1380. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1380 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1380 by 1, 1380 × 1 = 1380.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1380 after multiplying
2 × 690 = 1380
3 × 460 = 1380
4 × 345 = 1380
5 × 276 = 1380
6 × 230 = 1380
10 × 138 = 1380
12 × 115 = 1380
15 × 92 = 1380
20 × 69 = 1380
23 × 60 = 1380
30 × 46 = 1380
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1380 are: (1, 1380), (2, 690), (3, 460), (4, 345), (5, 276), (6, 230), (10, 138), (12, 115), (15, 92), (20, 69), (23, 60), and (30, 46).
For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
Dividing the given number by whole numbers until the remainder becomes zero and listing out the numbers which result as whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method:
Step 1: Divide 1380 by 1, 1380 ÷ 1 = 1380.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1380 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1380 ÷ 1 = 1380
1380 ÷ 2 = 690
1380 ÷ 3 = 460
1380 ÷ 4 = 345
1380 ÷ 5 = 276
1380 ÷ 6 = 230
1380 ÷ 10 = 138
1380 ÷ 12 = 115
1380 ÷ 15 = 92
1380 ÷ 20 = 69
1380 ÷ 23 = 60
1380 ÷ 30 = 46
Therefore, the factors of 1380 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 23, 30, 46, 60, 69, 92, 115, 138, 230, 276, 345, 460, 690, 1380.
The factors can be found by dividing it with prime numbers. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:
Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 1380 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors until the remainder becomes 1.
1380 ÷ 2 = 690
690 ÷ 2 = 345
345 ÷ 3 = 115
115 ÷ 5 = 23
23 ÷ 23 = 1
The prime factors of 1380 are 2, 3, 5, and 23.
The prime factorization of 1380 is: 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 23.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following steps show:
Step 1: Firstly, 1380 is divided by 2 to get 690.
Step 2: Now divide 690 by 2 to get 345.
Step 3: Then divide 345 by 3 to get 115.
Step 4: Divide 115 by 5 to get 23. Here, 23 is the smallest prime number that cannot be divided anymore.
So, the prime factorization of 1380 is: 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 23.
Factor Pairs: Two numbers that are multiplied to give a specific number are called factor pairs. Both positive and negative factors constitute factor pairs.
Positive factor pairs of 1380: (1, 1380), (2, 690), (3, 460), (4, 345), (5, 276), (6, 230), (10, 138), (12, 115), (15, 92), (20, 69), (23, 60), (30, 46).
Negative factor pairs of 1380: (-1, -1380), (-2, -690), (-3, -460), (-4, -345), (-5, -276), (-6, -230), (-10, -138), (-12, -115), (-15, -92), (-20, -69), (-23, -60), (-30, -46).
Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.
There are 23 friends and 1380 candies. How will they divide them equally?
They will get 60 candies each.
To divide the candies equally, we need to divide the total candies by the number of friends.
1380/23 = 60
A field is rectangular, the length of the field is 30 meters, and the total area is 1380 square meters. Find the width.
46 meters.
To find the width of the field, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1380 = 30 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 30 to the left side.
1380/30 = width
Width = 46.
There are 6 containers and 1380 liters of juice. How many liters will be in each container?
Each container will have 230 liters.
To find the liters in each container, divide the total liters by the number of containers.
1380/6 = 230
In a class, there are 1380 students and 69 groups. How many students are there in each group?
There are 20 students in each group.
Dividing the students by the total groups, we will get the number of students in each group.
1380/69 = 20
1380 books need to be arranged in 92 shelves. How many books will go on each shelf?
Each of the shelves has 15 books.
Divide total books by shelves.
1380/92 = 15
