What are the Factors of 1815?

The numbers that divide 1815 evenly are known as factors of 1815.

 

 

A factor of 1815 is a number that divides the number without remainder.

 

The factors of 1815 are 1, 3, 5, 11, 15, 33, 55, 121, 165, 363, 605, and 181

 

Negative factors of 1815: -1, -3, -5, -11, -15, -33, -55, -121, -165, -363, -605, and -1815.

 

Prime factors of 1815: 3, 5, and 11.

 

Prime factorization of 1815: 3 × 5 × 11 × 11.

 

The sum of factors of 1815: 1 + 3 + 5 + 11 + 15 + 33 + 55 + 121 + 165 + 363 + 605 + 1815 = 3192

How to Find Factors of 1815?

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
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 1815. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1815 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 1815 by 1, 1815 × 1 = 1815.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1815 after multiplying

 

3 × 605 = 1815

5 × 363 = 1815

11 × 165 = 1815

15 × 121 = 1815

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1815 are: (1, 1815), (3, 605), (5, 363), (11, 165), (15, 121).

 

All these factor pairs result in 1815.

 

For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

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 1815 by 1, 1815 ÷ 1 = 1815.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 1815 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

 

1815 ÷ 1 = 1815

1815 ÷ 3 = 605

1815 ÷ 5 = 363

1815 ÷ 11 = 165

1815 ÷ 15 = 121

 

Therefore, the factors of 1815 are: 1, 3, 5, 11, 15, 33, 55, 121, 165, 363, 605, 1815.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

The factors can be found by dividing them with a prime number. 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 1815 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

 

1815 ÷ 3 = 605

605 ÷ 5 = 121

121 ÷ 11 = 11

11 ÷ 11 = 1

 

The prime factors of 1815 are 3, 5, and 11.

 

The prime factorization of 1815 is: 3 × 5 × 11 × 11.

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, 1815 is divided by 3 to get 605.

 

Step 2: Now divide 605 by 5 to get 121.

 

Step 3: Then divide 121 by 11 to get 11.

 

Step 4: Divide 11 by 11 to get 1.

 

Here, 11 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore.

 

So, the prime factorization of 1815 is: 3 × 5 × 11 × 11.

 

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 1815: (1, 1815), (3, 605), (5, 363), (11, 165), and (15, 121).

 

Negative factor pairs of 1815: (-1, -1815), (-3, -605), (-5, -363), (-11, -165), and (-15, -121).

Mistake 1

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Forgetting the number itself and 1 is a factor

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

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 1815, 1 and 1815 are also factors.

Problem 1

A group of 11 people is planning to split a total of 1815 candies equally. How many candies will each person get?

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

Each person will get 165 candies.

Explanation

To divide the candies equally, we need to divide the total candies with the number of people.

1815/11 = 165

Problem 2

A hall is rectangular, the width of the hall is 15 meters, and the total area is 1815 square meters. Find the length?

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

121 meters.

Explanation

To find the length of the hall, we use the formula,

Area = length × width

1815 = 15 × length

To find the value of length, we need to shift 15 to the left side.

1815/15 = length

Length = 121.
