What are the Factors of 1723?

The numbers that divide 1723 evenly are known as factors of 1723.

 

A factor of 1723 is a number that divides the number without remainder.

 

The factors of 1723 are 1 and 1723 since 1723 is a prime number.

 

Negative factors of 1723: -1 and -1723.

 

Prime factors of 1723: 1723 itself, as it is a prime number.

 

The sum of factors of 1723: 1 + 1723 = 1724

How to Find Factors of 1723?

Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:

 

  • Finding factors using multiplication
     
  • Finding factors using division method
Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Multiplication

To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1723. Since 1723 is a prime number, the multiplication method will show:

 

Step 1: Multiply 1723 by 1, 1723 × 1 = 1723.

 

Therefore, the only positive factor pair of 1723 is: (1, 1723).

 

For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Division Method

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 1723 by 1, 1723 ÷ 1 = 1723.

 

Since 1723 is a prime number, no other divisions will result in whole numbers without a remainder.

 

Therefore, the factors of 1723 are: 1 and 1723.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Prime Factorization

Since 1723 is a prime number, it does not have a prime factorization that involves smaller prime numbers. The prime factorization of 1723 is simply the number itself: 1723.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

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 pair of 1723: (1, 1723).

 

Negative factor pair of 1723: (-1, -1723).

Mistake 1

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Forgetting the number itself and 1 is a factor

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Children might forget to add the given number itself and 1 as a factor. The number itself and 1 are factors for every number. Always remember to include 1 and the number itself.

 

For example, in factors of 1723, 1 and 1723 are also factors.
