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 1647, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1647 evenly are known as factors of 1647. A factor of 1647 is a number that divides the number without remainder. The factors of 1647 are 1, 3, 7, 21, 23, 69, 161, 483, 549, and 1647. Negative factors of 1647: -1, -3, -7, -21, -23, -69, -161, -483, -549, and -1647. Prime factors of 1647: 3, 7, and 23. Prime factorization of 1647: 3 × 7 × 23. The sum of factors of 1647: 1 + 3 + 7 + 21 + 23 + 69 + 161 + 483 + 549 + 1647 = 2964
Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods: Finding factors using multiplication Finding factors using the division method Prime factors and Prime factorization
To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1647. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1647 is the multiplication method. Step 1: Multiply 1647 by 1, 1647 × 1 = 1647. Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1647 after multiplying 3 × 549 = 1647 7 × 237 = 1647 21 × 78 = 1647 23 × 69 = 1647 Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1647 are: (1, 1647), (3, 549), (7, 237), (21, 78), and (23, 69). 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 the simple division method - Step 1: Divide 1647 by 1, 1647 ÷ 1 = 1647. Step 2: Continue dividing 1647 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0. 1647 ÷ 1 = 1647 1647 ÷ 3 = 549 1647 ÷ 7 = 237 1647 ÷ 21 = 78 1647 ÷ 23 = 69 Therefore, the factors of 1647 are: 1, 3, 7, 21, 23, 69, 161, 483, 549, and 1647.
The factors can be found by dividing it with prime numbers. We can find the prime factors using the following methods: Using prime factorization Using factor tree Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 1647 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1. 1647 ÷ 3 = 549 549 ÷ 3 = 183 183 ÷ 3 = 61 61 ÷ 7 = 7 7 ÷ 7 = 1 The prime factors of 1647 are 3, 7, and 23. The prime factorization of 1647 is: 3 × 7 × 23.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows - Step 1: Firstly, 1647 is divided by 3 to get 549. Step 2: Now divide 549 by 3 to get 183. Step 3: Then divide 183 by 3 to get 61. Step 4: Divide 61 by 7 to get 7. Here, 7 is the smallest prime number that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 1647 is: 3 × 7 × 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 1647: (1, 1647), (3, 549), (7, 237), (21, 78), and (23, 69). Negative factor pairs of 1647: (-1, -1647), (-3, -549), (-7, -237), (-21, -78), and (-23, -69).
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 3 teams and 1647 stickers. How will they divide it equally?
They will get 549 stickers each.
To divide the stickers equally, we need to divide the total stickers with the number of teams. 1647/3 = 549
A warehouse has a rectangular floor, the length of the floor is 21 meters and the total area is 1647 square meters. Find the width.
78 meters.
To find the width of the floor, we use the formula, Area = length × width 1647 = 21 × width To find the value of the width, we need to shift 21 to the left side. 1647/21 = width Width = 78.
There are 23 boxes and 1647 marbles. How many marbles will be in each box?
Each box will have 69 marbles.
To find the marbles in each box, divide the total marbles with the boxes. 1647/23 = 69
In a class, there are 1647 students, and 7 groups. How many students are there in each group?
There are 237 students in each group.
Dividing the students with the total groups, we will get the number of students in each group. 1647/7 = 237
1647 books need to be arranged in 21 shelves. How many books will go on each shelf?
Each of the shelves has 78 books.
Divide total books with shelves. 1647/21 = 78
Factors: The numbers that divide the given number without leaving a remainder are called factors. For example, the factors of 1647 are 1, 3, 7, 21, 23, 69, 161, 483, 549, and 1647. Prime factors: The factors which are prime numbers. For example, 3, 7, and 23 are prime factors of 1647. Factor pairs: Two numbers in a pair that are multiplied to give the original number are called factor pairs. For example, the factor pairs of 1647 are (1, 1647), (3, 549), etc. Prime factorization: The expression of a number as the product of its prime factors. For example, the prime factorization of 1647 is 3 × 7 × 23. Multiple: A number that can be divided by another number without a remainder. For example, 1647 is a multiple of 7.
