Factors are the numbers that divide any given number evenly without a 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 1828, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1828 evenly are known as factors of 1828.
A factor of 1828 is a number that divides the number without a remainder.
The factors of 1828 are 1, 2, 4, 457, 914, and 1828.
Negative factors of 1828: -1, -2, -4, -457, -914, and -1828.
Prime factors of 1828: 2 and 457.
Prime factorization of 1828: 2 × 914 = 2 × 2 × 457 = 2² × 457.
The sum of factors of 1828: 1 + 2 + 4 + 457 + 914 + 1828 = 3206
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 1828. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1828 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1828 by 1, 1828 × 1 = 1828.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1828 after multiplying:
2 × 914 = 1828
4 × 457 = 1828
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1828 are: (1, 1828), (2, 914), (4, 457).
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 1828 by 1, 1828 ÷ 1 = 1828.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1828 by numbers until the remainder becomes 0:
1828 ÷ 1 = 1828
1828 ÷ 2 = 914
1828 ÷ 4 = 457
Therefore, the factors of 1828 are: 1, 2, 4, 457, 914, 1828.
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 1828 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1828 ÷ 2 = 914
914 ÷ 2 = 457
457 ÷ 457 = 1
The prime factors of 1828 are 2 and 457.
The prime factorization of 1828 is: 2² × 457.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows:
Step 1: Firstly, 1828 is divided by 2 to get 914.
Step 2: Now divide 914 by 2 to get 457.
Step 3: Here, 457 is a prime number and cannot be divided further.
So, the prime factorization of 1828 is: 2² × 457.
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 1828: (1, 1828), (2, 914), (4, 457).
Negative factor pairs of 1828: (-1, -1828), (-2, -914), (-4, -457).
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 2 teams and 1828 points to be distributed equally among them. How will they distribute it equally?
They will get 914 points each.
To distribute the points equally, we need to divide the total points by the number of teams.
1828/2 = 914
A rectangular garden has a length of 457 meters, and its total area is 1828 square meters. Find the width.
4 meters.
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1828 = 457 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 457 to the left side.
1828/457 = width
Width = 4.
There are 4 boxes and 1828 marbles. How many marbles will be in each box?
Each box will have 457 marbles.
To find the marbles in each box, divide the total marbles by the number of boxes.
1828/4 = 457
In a hall, there are 1828 chairs, and 457 rows. How many chairs are there in each row?
There are 4 chairs in each row.
Dividing the chairs by the total rows, we will get the number of chairs in each row.
1828/457 = 4
1828 pages need to be divided into 2 volumes. How many pages will be in each volume?
Each volume has 914 pages.
Divide total pages by the number of volumes.
1828/2 = 914
