The sum of factors of 1768: 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 11 + 16 + 22 + 44 + 88 + 202 + 404 + 884 + 1768 = 3454
How to Find Factors of 1768?
Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:
- Finding factors using multiplication
- Finding factors using division method
- Prime factors and Prime factorization
Finding Factors Using Multiplication
To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1768. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1768 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1768 by 1, 1768 × 1 = 1768.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1768 after multiplying
2 × 884 = 1768
4 × 442 = 1768
8 × 221 = 1768
11 × 161 = 1768
16 × 110.5 = not possible,
so check next 22 × 80.36 = not possible,
so check next 44 × 40.18 = not possible,
so check next 88 × 20.09 = not possible,
so check next 202 × 8.75 = not possible,
so check next 404 × 4.38 = not possible,
so check next 884 × 2 = 1768
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1768 are: (1, 1768), (2, 884), (4, 442), (8, 221), (11, 161).
For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
Finding Factors Using Division Method
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 1768 by 1, 1768 ÷ 1 = 1768.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1768 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1768 ÷ 1 = 1768
1768 ÷ 2 = 884
1768 ÷ 4 = 442
1768 ÷ 8 = 221
1768 ÷ 11 = 161
Therefore, the factors of 1768 are: 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 16, 22, 44, 88, 202, 404, 884, 1768.
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 1768 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1768 ÷ 2 = 884
884 ÷ 2 = 442
442 ÷ 2 = 221
221 ÷ 11 = 20.09 (not possible, check further)
So, 221 ÷ 11 = 20.09 (not possible, so stop here, 112 was misused in original)
The prime factors of 1768 are 2 and 11.
The prime factorization of 1768 is: 2³ × 11².
Factor Tree
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows
Step 1: Firstly, 1768 is divided by 2 to get 884.
Step 2: Now divide 884 by 2 to get 442.
Step 3: Then divide 442 by 2 to get 221.
Step 4: Divide 221 by 11 to get 20.09, but stop here as it's non-divisible, 11² was misused in original. Here, 11 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore.
So, the prime factorization of 1768 is: 2³ × 11².
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 1768: (1, 1768), (2, 884), (4, 442), (8, 221), (11, 161).
Negative factor pairs of 1768: (-1, -1768), (-2, -884), (-4, -442), (-8, -221), (-11, -161).
Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Factors of 1768
Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.
Mistake 1
Forgetting the number itself and 1 is a factor
Children might forget to add the given number itself and 1 as a factor. The number itself and 1 are the factors for every number. Always remember to include 1 and the number itself.
For example, in factors of 1768, 1 and 1768 are also factors.
Factors of 1768 Examples
Problem 1
There are 8 teams and 1768 points to distribute equally. How will they divide it equally?
They will get 221 points each.
Explanation
To divide the points equally, we need to divide the total points with the number of teams.
1768/8 = 221
Problem 2
A garden is rectangular, the length of the garden is 44 meters and the total area is 1768 square meters. Find the width.
40 meters.
Explanation
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1768 = 44 × width
To find the value of width, we need to divide by 44.
1768/44 = width
Width = 40.
Problem 3
There are 22 boxes and 1768 marbles. How many marbles will be in each box?
Each box will have 80 marbles.
Explanation
To find the marbles in each box, divide the total marbles with the boxes.
1768/22 = 80
Problem 4
In a school, there are 1768 students, and they need to be grouped into 11 classes. How many students are there in each class?
There are 161 students in each class.
Explanation
Dividing the students with the total classes, we will get the number of students in each class.
1768/11 = 161
Problem 5
1768 books need to be arranged in 8 shelves. How many books will go on each shelf?
Each of the shelves has 221 books.
Explanation
Divide total books with shelves.
1768/8 = 221
