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 9375, how they are used in real life, and the tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 9375 evenly are known as factors of 9375.
A factor of 9375 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 9375 are 1, 3, 5, 15, 25, 75, 125, 375, 625, 1875, 3125, and 9375.
Negative factors of 9375: -1, -3, -5, -15, -25, -75, -125, -375, -625, -1875, -3125, and -9375.
Prime factors of 9375: 3 and 5.
Prime factorization of 9375: 3 × 54.
The sum of factors of 9375: 1 + 3 + 5 + 15 + 25 + 75 + 125 + 375 + 625 + 1875 + 3125 + 9375 = 14629
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 9375. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 9375 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 9375 by 1, 9375 × 1 = 9375.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 9375 after multiplying
3 × 3125 = 9375
5 × 1875 = 9375
15 × 625 = 9375
25 × 375 = 9375
75 × 125 = 9375
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 9375 are: (1, 9375), (3, 3125), (5, 1875), (15, 625), (25, 375), (75, 125). All these factor pairs result in 9375.
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 9375 by 1, 9375 ÷ 1 = 9375.
Step 2: Continue dividing 9375 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
9375 ÷ 1 = 9375
9375 ÷ 3 = 3125
9375 ÷ 5 = 1875
9375 ÷ 15 = 625
9375 ÷ 25 = 375
9375 ÷ 75 = 125
Therefore, the factors of 9375 are: 1, 3, 5, 15, 25, 75, 125, 375, 625, 1875, 3125, 9375.
The factors can be found by dividing it with a prime number. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:
Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 9375 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
9375 ÷ 3 = 3125
3125 ÷ 5 = 625
625 ÷ 5 = 125
125 ÷ 5 = 25
25 ÷ 5 = 5
5 ÷ 5 = 1
The prime factors of 9375 are 3 and 5.
The prime factorization of 9375 is: 3 × 54.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows
Step 1: Firstly, 9375 is divided by 3 to get 3125.
Step 2: Now divide 3125 by 5 to get 625.
Step 3: Then divide 625 by 5 to get 125.
Step 4: Divide 125 by 5 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 9375 is: 3 × 5^4.
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 9375: (1, 9375), (3, 3125), (5, 1875), (15, 625), (25, 375), and (75, 125).
Negative factor pairs of 9375: (-1, -9375), (-3, -3125), (-5, -1875), (-15, -625), (-25, -375), and (-75, -125).
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 15 participants in a contest and 9375 points to be distributed. How many points will each participant get equally?
They will get 625 points each.
To divide the points equally, we need to divide the total points by the number of participants.
9375 ÷ 15 = 625
A garden is rectangular, the length of the garden is 25 meters and the total area is 9375 square meters. Find the width?
375 meters.
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
9375 = 25 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 25 to the left side.
9375 ÷ 25 = width
Width = 375.
There are 125 chairs and 9375 guests. How many guests will be seated in each chair?
Each chair will have 75 guests.
To find the guests per chair, divide the total guests by the chairs.
9375 ÷ 125 = 75
In a tournament, there are 9375 players, and 375 teams. How many players are there in each team?
There are 25 players in each team.
Dividing the players with the total teams, we will get the number of players in each team.
9375 ÷ 375 = 25
9375 apples need to be placed in 3125 baskets. How many apples will go in each basket?
Each of the baskets has 3 apples.
Divide total apples by baskets.
9375 ÷ 3125 = 3
