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 2025, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 2025 evenly are known as factors of 2025.
A factor of 2025 is a number that divides the number without a remainder.
The factors of 2025 are 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 27, 45, 75, 135, 225, 405, 675, and 2025.
Negative factors of 2025: -1, -3, -5, -9, -15, -27, -45, -75, -135, -225, -405, -675, and -2025.
Prime factors of 2025: 3 and 5.
Prime factorization of 2025: 34 × 52.
The sum of factors of 2025: 1 + 3 + 5 + 9 + 15 + 27 + 45 + 75 + 135 + 225 + 405 + 675 + 2025 = 3645
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 2025. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 2025 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 2025 by 1, 2025 × 1 = 2025.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 2025 after multiplying
3 × 675 = 2025
5 × 405 = 2025
9 × 225 = 2025
15 × 135 = 2025
27 × 75 = 2025
45 × 45 = 2025
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 2025 are: (1, 2025), (3, 675), (5, 405), (9, 225), (15, 135), (27, 75), (45, 45).
All these factor pairs result in 2025.
For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
Dividing the given numbers with 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 2025 by 1, 2025 ÷ 1 = 2025.
Step 2: Continue dividing 2025 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
2025 ÷ 1 = 2025
2025 ÷ 3 = 675
2025 ÷ 5 = 405
2025 ÷ 9 = 225
2025 ÷ 15 = 135
2025 ÷ 27 = 75
2025 ÷ 45 = 45
Therefore, the factors of 2025 are: 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 27, 45, 75, 135, 225, 405, 675, 2025.
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 2025 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
2025 ÷ 3 = 675
675 ÷ 3 = 225
225 ÷ 3 = 75
75 ÷ 3 = 25
25 ÷ 5 = 5
5 ÷ 5 = 1
The prime factors of 2025 are 3 and 5.
The prime factorization of 2025 is: 34 × 52.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following steps show
Step 1: Firstly, 2025 is divided by 3 to get 675.
Step 2: Now divide 675 by 3 to get 225.
Step 3: Then divide 225 by 3 to get 75.
Step 4: Divide 75 by 3 to get 25.
Step 5: Divide 25 by 5 to get 5. Here, 5 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore.
So, the prime factorization of 2025 is: 34 × 52.
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 2025: (1, 2025), (3, 675), (5, 405), (9, 225), (15, 135), (27, 75), and (45, 45).
Negative factor pairs of 2025: (-1, -2025), (-3, -675), (-5, -405), (-9, -225), (-15, -135), (-27, -75), and (-45, -45).
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 27 students and 2025 apples. How will they distribute them equally?
They will get 75 apples each.
To distribute the apples equally, we need to divide the total apples by the number of students.
2025/27 = 75
A rectangular garden has a length of 45 meters and a total area of 2025 square meters. Find the width.
45 meters.
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
2025 = 45 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 45 to the left side.
2025/45 = width
Width = 45.
There are 45 buckets and 2025 liters of water. How many liters will be in each bucket?
Each bucket will have 45 liters.
To find the liters in each bucket, divide the total liters by the number of buckets.
2025/45 = 45
In a school, there are 75 students, and they need to organize into 15 groups. How many students are there in each group?
There are 5 students in each group.
Dividing the students by the total groups, we will get the number of students in each group.
75/15 = 5
2025 books need to be arranged in 405 shelves. How many books will go on each shelf?
Each of the shelves has 5 books.
Divide total books by shelves.
2025/405 = 5
