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 1759, how they are used in real life, and the tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1759 evenly are known as factors of 1759.
A factor of 1759 is a number that divides the number without a remainder.
The factors of 1759 are 1, 19, 37, and 1759.
Negative factors of 1759: -1, -19, -37, and -1759.
Prime factors of 1759: 19 and 37.
Prime factorization of 1759: 19 × 37.
The sum of factors of 1759: 1 + 19 + 37 + 1759 = 1816
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 1759. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1759 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1759 by 1, 1759 × 1 = 1759.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1759 after multiplying 19 × 37 = 1759
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1759 are: (1, 1759) and (19, 37).
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 in whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method
Step 1: Divide 1759 by 1, 1759 ÷ 1 = 1759.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1759 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1759 ÷ 1 = 1759
1759 ÷ 19 = 37
1759 ÷ 37 = 19
Therefore, the factors of 1759 are: 1, 19, 37, 1759.
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 1759 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1759 ÷ 19 = 37
37 ÷ 37 = 1
The prime factors of 1759 are 19 and 37.
The prime factorization of 1759 is: 19 × 37.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows
Step 1: Firstly, 1759 is divided by 19 to get 37.
Step 2: Divide 37 by 37 to get 1. Here, 37 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore.
So, the prime factorization of 1759 is: 19 × 37.
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 1759: (1, 1759) and (19, 37).
Negative factor pairs of 1759: (-1, -1759) and (-19, -37).
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 19 boxes and 1759 pencils. How will they divide it equally?
They will get 37 pencils each.
To divide the pencils equally, we need to divide the total pencils by the number of boxes.
1759/19 = 37
A field is rectangular, the length of the field is 37 meters and the total area is 1759 square meters. Find the width?
47.54 meters.
To find the width of the field, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1759 = 37 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 37 to the left side.
1759/37 = width
Width ≈ 47.54.
There are 37 bags and 1759 candies. How many candies will be in each bag?
Each bag will have 47 candies.
To find the candies in each bag, divide the total candies by the bags.
1759/37 = 47
In a class, there are 1759 students, and 19 groups. How many students are there in each group?
There are 92 students in each group.
Dividing the students by the total groups, we will get the number of students in each group.
1759/19 = 92
1759 books need to be arranged in 37 shelves. How many books will go on each shelf?
Each of the shelves has 47 books.
Divide total books by shelves.
1759/37 = 47
