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 1795, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1795 evenly are known as factors of 1795.
A factor of 1795 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 1795 are 1, 5, 359, and 1795.
Negative factors of 1795: -1, -5, -359, and -1795.
Prime factors of 1795: 5 and 359.
Prime factorization of 1795: 5 × 359.
The sum of factors of 1795: 1 + 5 + 359 + 1795 = 2160
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 1795. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1795 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1795 by 1, 1795 × 1 = 1795.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1795 after multiplying
5 × 359 = 1795
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1795 are: (1, 1795) and (5, 359).
All these factor pairs result in 1795.
For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
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 1795 by 1, 1795 ÷ 1 = 1795.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1795 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1795 ÷ 1 = 1795
1795 ÷ 5 = 359
Therefore, the factors of 1795 are: 1, 5, 359, and 1795.
The factors can be found by dividing it with a prime number. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:
Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 1795 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1795 ÷ 5 = 359
359 ÷ 359 = 1
The prime factors of 1795 are 5 and 359.
The prime factorization of 1795 is: 5 × 359.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows -
Step 1: Firstly, 1795 is divided by 5 to get 359.
Here, 359 is a prime number that cannot be divided anymore.
So, the prime factorization of 1795 is: 5 × 359.
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 1795: (1, 1795) and (5, 359).
Negative factor pairs of 1795: (-1, -1795) and (-5, -359).
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 5 friends and 1795 candies. How will they divide it equally?
They will get 359 candies each.
To divide the candies equally, we need to divide the total candies by the number of friends.
1795/5 = 359
A field is rectangular, the length of the field is 359 meters, and the total area is 1795 square meters. Find the width?
5 meters.
To find the width of the field, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1795 = 359 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 359 to the left side.
1795/359 = width
Width = 5.
There are 359 bags and 1795 candies. How many candies will be in each bag?
Each bag will have 5 candies.
To find the candies in each bag, divide the total candies by the bags.
1795/359 = 5
In a class, there are 1795 students, and 5 groups. How many students are there in each group?
There are 359 students in each group.
Dividing the students by the total groups, we will get the number of students in each group.
1795/5 = 359
1795 books need to be arranged in 5 shelves. How many books will go on each shelf?
Each of the shelves has 359 books.
Divide total books by shelves.
1795/5 = 359
