Factors of 1931
Factors are the numbers that divide any given number evenly without 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 1931, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
What are the Factors of 1931?
The numbers that divide 1931 evenly are known as factors of 1931.
A factor of 1931 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 1931 are 1 and 1931.
Negative factors of 1931: -1 and -1931.
Prime factors of 1931: 1931 (since it is a prime number).
Prime factorization of 1931: 1931.
The sum of factors of 1931: 1 + 1931 = 1932
How to Find Factors of 1931?
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
Finding Factors Using Multiplication
To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1931. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1931 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1931 by 1, 1931 × 1 = 1931.
Since 1931 is a prime number, the only positive factor pair is: (1, 1931).
For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
Finding Factors Using Division Method
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 1931 by 1, 1931 ÷ 1 = 1931.
Since 1931 is prime, dividing by any other number except 1 and 1931 does not result in a whole number.
Therefore, the factors of 1931 are: 1 and 1931.
Prime Factors and Prime Factorization
The factors can be found by dividing it 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, since 1931 is a prime number, its only prime factor is itself.
The prime factors of 1931 are 1931.
The prime factorization of 1931 is: 1931.
Factor Tree
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. However, since 1931 is a prime number, it cannot be broken down further. So, the prime factorization of 1931 is: 1931.
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 pair of 1931: (1, 1931).
Negative factor pair of 1931: (-1, -1931).
Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Factors of 1931
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
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 1931, 1 and 1931 is also a factor.
Factors of 1931 Examples
Problem 1
There are 1,931 marbles and 1 box. How will they distribute them?
The box will have 1,931 marbles.
Explanation
To distribute the marbles, we need to divide the total marbles by the number of boxes.
1931/1 = 1931
Problem 2
A plot of land is rectangular, and its area is 1931 square meters with a known length of 1 meter. Find the width?
1931 meters.
Explanation
To find the width of the plot, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1931 = 1 × width
To find the value of width, divide 1931 by 1.
1931/1 = width
Width = 1931.
Problem 3
There are 1931 pages to be printed and 1 printer. How many pages will be printed per printer?
Each printer will print 1931 pages.
Explanation
To find the pages printed per printer, divide the total pages by the number of printers.
1931/1 = 1931
Problem 4
In a conference, there are 1,931 participants, and 1 room. How many participants are there in each room?
There are 1,931 participants in each room.
Explanation
Dividing the participants by the total rooms, we will get the number of participants in each room.
1931/1 = 1931
Problem 5
1931 chairs need to be arranged in 1 hall. How many chairs will go in each hall?
The hall will have 1931 chairs.
Explanation
Divide the total chairs by the number of halls.
1931/1 = 1931
