Prime factorization of 7744: 24 × 532.
The sum of factors of 7744: 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + 53 + 106 + 212 + 424 + 664 + 1328 + 1936 + 3872 + 7744 = 16408
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 7744. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 7744 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 7744 by 1, 7744 × 1 = 7744.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 7744 after multiplying
2 × 3872 = 7744
4 × 1936 = 7744
8 × 968 = 7744
16 × 484 = 7744
32 × 242 = 7744
53 × 146 = 7744
106 × 73 = 7744
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 7744 are: (1, 7744), (2, 3872), (4, 1936), (8, 968), (16, 484), (32, 242), (53, 146), and (106, 73).
For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
Dividing the given numbers with 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 7744 by 1, 7744 ÷ 1 = 7744.
Step 2: Continue dividing 7744 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
7744 ÷ 1 = 7744
7744 ÷ 2 = 3872
7744 ÷ 4 = 1936
7744 ÷ 8 = 968
7744 ÷ 16 = 484
7744 ÷ 32 = 242
7744 ÷ 53 = 146
7744 ÷ 106 = 73
Therefore, the factors of 7744 are: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 53, 106, 146, 212, 424, 664, 1328, 1936, 3872, and 7744.
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 7744 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors until the remainder becomes 1.
7744 ÷ 2 = 3872
3872 ÷ 2 = 1936
1936 ÷ 2 = 968
968 ÷ 2 = 484
484 ÷ 53 = 9.132 (not divisible)
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following steps show
Step 1: Firstly, 7744 is divided by 2 to get 3872.
Step 2: Now divide 3872 by 2 to get 1936.
Step 3: Then divide 1936 by 2 to get 968.
Step 4: Divide 968 by 2 to get 484.
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 7744: (1, 7744), (2, 3872), (4, 1936), (8, 968), (16, 484), (32, 242), (53, 146), and (106, 73).
Negative factor pairs of 7744: (-1, -7744), (-2, -3872), (-4, -1936), (-8, -968), (-16, -484), (-32, -242), (-53, -146), and (-106, -73).
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 15 tables and 7744 chairs. How will they arrange it equally?
They will arrange 516 chairs on each table.
To arrange the chairs equally, we need to divide the total chairs by the number of tables.
7744/15 = 516
A community garden is rectangular, the length of the garden is 32 meters and the total area is 7744 square meters. Find the width?
242 meters.
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
7744 = 32 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 32 to the left side.
7744/32 = width
Width = 242.
There are 53 boxes and 7744 chocolates. How many chocolates will be in each box?
Each box will have 146 chocolates.
To find the chocolates in each box, divide the total chocolates by the boxes.
7744/53 = 146
In a laboratory, there are 7744 samples and 106 groups. How many samples are there in each group?
There are 73 samples in each group.
Dividing the samples by the total groups, we will get the number of samples in each group.
7744/106 = 73
7744 seedlings need to be planted in 8 rows. How many seedlings will go in each row?
Each of the rows has 968 seedlings.
Divide total seedlings by rows.
7744/8 = 968
