What are the Factors of 1737?

The numbers that divide 1737 evenly are known as factors of 1737.

 

A factor of 1737 is a number that divides the number without a remainder.

 

The factors of 1737 are 1, 3, 13, 23, 39, 69, 299, 579, and 1737.

 

Negative factors of 1737: -1, -3, -13, -23, -39, -69, -299, -579, and -1737.

 

Prime factors of 1737: 3, 13, and 23.

 

Prime factorization of 1737: 3 × 13 × 23.

 

The sum of factors of 1737: 1 + 3 + 13 + 23 + 39 + 69 + 299 + 579 + 1737 = 2763

How to Find Factors of 1737?

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
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 1737. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1737 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 1737 by 1, 1737 × 1 = 1737.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1737 after multiplying:

3 × 579 = 1737

13 × 133 = 1737

23 × 75 = 1737

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1737 are: (1, 1737), (3, 579), (13, 133), (23, 75).

 

For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Division Method

Dividing the given numbers with whole numbers until the remainder becomes zero and listing out the numbers which result in whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following the simple division method:

 

Step 1: Divide 1737 by 1, 1737 ÷ 1 = 1737.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 1737 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

1737 ÷ 1 = 1737

1737 ÷ 3 = 579

1737 ÷ 13 = 133

1737 ÷ 23 = 75

 

Therefore, the factors of 1737 are: 1, 3, 13, 23, 39, 69, 299, 579, 1737.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

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 1737 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

1737 ÷ 3 = 579

579 ÷ 3 = 193

193 ÷ 13 = 23

23 ÷ 23 = 1

 

The prime factors of 1737 are 3, 13, and 23.

 

The prime factorization of 1737 is: 3 × 13 × 23.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Factor Tree

The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows 

 

Step 1: Firstly, 1737 is divided by 3 to get 579.

 

Step 2: Now divide 579 by 3 to get 193.

 

Step 3: Then divide 193 by 13 to get 23. Here, 23 is the smallest prime number that cannot be divided anymore.

 

So, the prime factorization of 1737 is: 3 × 13 × 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 1737: (1, 1737), (3, 579), (13, 133), (23, 75).

 

Negative factor pairs of 1737: (-1, -1737), (-3, -579), (-13, -133), (-23, -75).

Problem 1

There are 3 teams and 1737 points. How will they divide the points equally?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

Each team will get 579 points.

Explanation

To divide the points equally, we need to divide the total points with the number of teams.

1737/3 = 579

Problem 2

A rectangular garden has a length of 13 meters and a total area of 1737 square meters. Find the width.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

133 meters.

Explanation

To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,

Area = length × width

1737 = 13 × width

To find the value of width, we need to shift 13 to the left side.

1737/13 = width

Width = 133.
