Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:

1. Finding factors using multiplication
2. Finding factors using division method
3. Prime factors and Prime factorization

To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 934. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 934 is the multiplication method.

Step 1: Multiply 934 by 1, 934 × 1 = 934.

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 934 after multiplying

2 × 467 = 934

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 934 are: (1, 934), (2, 467). All these factor pairs result in 934. 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 934 by 1, 934 ÷ 1 = 934.

Step 2: Continue dividing 934 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

934 ÷ 1 = 934

934 ÷ 2 = 467

Therefore, the factors of 934 are: 1, 2, 467, 934.

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 934 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

934 ÷ 2 = 467

467 ÷ 467 = 1

The prime factors of 934 are 2 and 467. The prime factorization of 934 is: 2 × 467.

The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following steps show -

Step 1: Firstly, 934 is divided by 2 to get 467.

Step 2: 467 is a prime number and cannot be divided further. So, the prime factorization of 934 is: 2 × 467.

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 934: (1, 934), (2, 467).
• Negative factor pairs of 934: (-1, -934), (-2, -467).

• Factors: The numbers that divide the given number without leaving a remainder are called factors. For example, the factors of 934 are 1, 2, 467, and 934.

• Prime factors: The factors which are prime numbers. For example, 2 and 467 are prime factors of 934.

• Factor pairs: Two numbers in a pair that are multiplied to give the original number are called factor pairs. For example, the factor pairs of 934 are (1, 934) and (2, 467).

• Prime factorization: The process of expressing a number as a product of its prime factors. For example, the prime factorization of 934 is 2 × 467.

• Negative factors: Factors that are negative counterparts of the positive factors. For example, -1, -2, -467, and -934 are negative factors of 934.
