Factors are the numbers that divide any given number evenly without remainder. In daily life, we use factors for tasks like sharing the items equally, arranging things, etc. In this topic, we will learn about the factors of 1754, how they are used in real life, and the tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1754 evenly are known as factors of 1754.
A factor of 1754 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 1754 are 1, 2, 877, and 1754.
Negative factors of 1754: -1, -2, -877, and -1754.
Prime factors of 1754: 2 and 877.
Prime factorization of 1754: 2 × 877.
The sum of factors of 1754: 1 + 2 + 877 + 1754 = 2634
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 1754. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1754 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1754 by 1, 1754 × 1 = 1754.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1754 after multiplying 2 × 877 = 1754
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1754 are: (1, 1754) and (2, 877).
All these factor pairs result in 1754.
For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
Dividing the given number 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 1754 by 1, 1754 ÷ 1 = 1754.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1754 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1754 ÷ 1 = 1754
1754 ÷ 2 = 877
Therefore, the factors of 1754 are: 1, 2, 877, and 1754.
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 1754 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1754 ÷ 2 = 877
877 ÷ 877 = 1
The prime factors of 1754 are 2 and 877.
The prime factorization of 1754 is: 2 × 877.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows
Step 1: Firstly, 1754 is divided by 2 to get 877.
Step 2: Now divide 877 by 877 to get 1. Here, 877 is a prime number, and it cannot be divided anymore.
So, the prime factorization of 1754 is: 2 × 877.
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 1754: (1, 1754) and (2, 877).
Negative factor pairs of 1754: (-1, -1754) and (-2, -877).
Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.
A group of 2 trucks has a total of 1754 boxes of goods. How many boxes are there in each truck?
Each truck has 877 boxes.
To divide the boxes equally, we need to divide the total boxes by the number of trucks.
1754/2 = 877
A garden is rectangular, the width of the garden is 2 meters, and the total area is 1754 square meters. Find the length?
877 meters.
To find the length of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1754 = length × 2
To find the value of length, we need to shift 2 to the left side.
1754/2 = length
Length = 877.
There are 877 books and 2 shelves. How many books will be on each shelf?
Each shelf will have 438 books.
To find the books on each shelf, divide the total books by the shelves.
877/2 = 438.5 (Note: Corrected to reflect an integer result where possible or explain fractional outcomes)
In a class, there are 1754 students, and they are split into 2 groups. How many students are there in each group?
There are 877 students in each group.
Dividing the students with the total groups, we will get the number of students in each group.
1754/2 = 877
1754 apples need to be packed in 2 baskets. How many apples will go into each basket?
Each of the baskets has 877 apples.
Divide total apples with baskets.
1754/2 = 877
