Factors of 1911
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 1911, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
What are the Factors of 1911?
The numbers that divide 1911 evenly are known as factors of 1911.
A factor of 1911 is a number that divides the number without a remainder.
The factors of 1911 are 1, 3, 11, 33, 58, 174, 637, and 1911.
Negative factors of 1911: -1, -3, -11, -33, -58, -174, -637, and -1911.
Prime factors of 1911: 3, 11, and 58.
Prime factorization of 1911: 3 × 11 × 58.
The sum of factors of 1911: 1 + 3 + 11 + 33 + 58 + 174 + 637 + 1911 = 2828
How to Find Factors of 1911?
Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:
- Finding factors using multiplication
- Finding factors using the 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 1911. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1911 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1911 by 1, 1911 × 1 = 1911.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1911 after multiplying
3 × 637 = 1911
11 × 174 = 1911
33 × 58 = 1911
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1911 are: (1, 1911), (3, 637), (11, 174), (33, 58). 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 1911 by 1, 1911 ÷ 1 = 1911.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1911 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1911 ÷ 1 = 1911
1911 ÷ 3 = 637
1911 ÷ 11 = 174
1911 ÷ 33 = 58
Therefore, the factors of 1911 are: 1, 3, 11, 33, 58, 174, 637, 1911.
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 1911 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors until the remainder becomes 1.
1911 ÷ 3 = 637
637 ÷ 11 = 58
58 ÷ 58 = 1
The prime factors of 1911 are 3, 11, and 58.
The prime factorization of 1911 is: 3 × 11 × 58.
Factor Tree
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows -
Step 1: Firstly, 1911 is divided by 3 to get 637.
Step 2: Now divide 637 by 11 to get 58.
Step 3: Divide 58 by 58 to get 1. Here, 58 is the smallest prime number, which cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 1911 is: 3 × 11 × 58.
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 1911: (1, 1911), (3, 637), (11, 174), and (33, 58).
Negative factor pairs of 1911: (-1, -1911), (-3, -637), (-11, -174), and (-33, -58).
Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Factors of 1911
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
People might forget to add the given number itself and 1 as a factor. The number itself and 1 are factors for every number. Always remember to include 1 and the number itself.
For example, in factors of 1911, 1 and 1911 are also factors.
Factors of 1911 Examples
Problem 1
There are 3 teams and 1911 candies. How will they divide it equally?
Each team will get 637 candies.
Explanation
To divide the candies equally, we need to divide the total candies with the number of teams.
1911/3 = 637
Problem 2
A rectangular banner has a length of 11 meters and a total area of 1911 square meters. Find the width.
The width is 174 meters.
Explanation
To find the width of the banner, we use the formula, Area = length × width
1911 = 11 × width
To find the value of the width, we need to shift 11 to the left side.
1911/11 = width
Width = 174.
Problem 3
There are 33 boxes and 1911 marbles. How many marbles will be in each box?
Each box will have 58 marbles.
Explanation
To find the marbles in each box, divide the total marbles by the number of boxes.
1911/33 = 58
Problem 4
In a class, there are 1911 students, and 11 groups. How many students are there in each group?
There are 174 students in each group.
Explanation
Dividing the students by the total groups, we will get the number of students in each group.
1911/11 = 174
Problem 5
1911 books need to be arranged in 3 shelves. How many books will go on each shelf?
Each shelf will have 637 books.
Explanation
Divide total books by the number of shelves.
1911/3 = 637
