Factors are the numbers that divide any given number evenly without 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 1399, how they are used in real life, and the tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1399 evenly are known as factors of 1399.
A factor of 1399 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 1399 are 1, 19, 73, and 1399.
Negative factors of 1399: -1, -19, -73, and -1399.
Prime factors of 1399: 19 and 73.
Prime factorization of 1399: 19 × 73.
The sum of factors of 1399: 1 + 19 + 73 + 1399 = 1492
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 1399. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1399 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1399 by 1, 1399 × 1 = 1399.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1399 after multiplying 19 × 73 = 1399
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1399 are: (1, 1399), (19, 73).
For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
Dividing the given numbers with the 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 1399 by 1, 1399 ÷ 1 = 1399.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1399 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1399 ÷ 1 = 1399
1399 ÷ 19 = 73
1399 ÷ 73 = 19
1399 ÷ 1399 = 1
Therefore, the factors of 1399 are: 1, 19, 73, 1399.
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 1399 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1399 ÷ 19 = 73
73 ÷ 73 = 1
The prime factors of 1399 are 19 and 73.
The prime factorization of 1399 is: 19 × 73.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows
Step 1: Firstly, 1399 is divided by 19 to get 73.
Step 2: Now divide 73 by 73 to get 1. Here, both 19 and 73 are prime numbers and cannot be divided further.
So, the prime factorization of 1399 is: 19 × 73.
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 1399: (1, 1399), (19, 73).
Negative factor pairs of 1399: (-1, -1399), (-19, -73).
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 73 students and 1399 pencils. How will they distribute the pencils equally?
They will get 19 pencils each.
To distribute the pencils equally, we need to divide the total pencils by the number of students.
1399/73 = 19
A wall is rectangular, the height of the wall is 19 meters and the total area is 1399 square meters. Find the width?
73 meters.
To find the width of the wall, we use the formula,
Area = height × width
1399 = 19 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 19 to the left side.
1399/19 = width
Width = 73.
There are 1399 jars and each box can hold 19 jars. How many boxes are needed?
73 boxes are needed.
To find the number of boxes needed, divide the total jars by the capacity of each box.
1399/19 = 73
1399 players need to be divided into 19 teams. How many players are there in each team?
There are 73 players in each team.
Dividing the players by the total teams, we will get the number of players in each team.
1399/19 = 73
A company has 1399 products and needs to place them in 73 containers. How many products will go in each container?
Each of the containers will have 19 products.
Divide total products by containers.
1399/73 = 19
