What are the Factors of 1223?

The numbers that divide 1223 evenly are known as factors of 1223. A factor of 1223 is a number that divides the number without remainder. The factors of 1223 are 1, 17, 71, and 1223.

 

Negative factors of 1223: -1, -17, -71, and -1223.

 

Prime factors of 1223: 17 and 71.

 

Prime factorization of 1223: 17 × 71.

 

The sum of factors of 1223: 1 + 17 + 71 + 1223 = 1312

How to Find Factors of 1223?

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

Finding Factors Using Multiplication

To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1223. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1223 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 1223 by 1, 1223 × 1 = 1223.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1223 after multiplying 17 × 71 = 1223

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1223 are: (1, 1223) and (17, 71). 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 in whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method -

 

Step 1: Divide 1223 by 1, 1223 ÷ 1 = 1223.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 1223 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

 

1223 ÷ 1 = 1223

1223 ÷ 17 = 71

1223 ÷ 71 = 17

 

Therefore, the factors of 1223 are: 1, 17, 71, and 1223.

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, prime factors of 1223 divide the number to break it down into the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

 

1223 ÷ 17 = 71

71 ÷ 71 = 1

 

The prime factors of 1223 are 17 and 71. The prime factorization of 1223 is: 17 × 71.

Factor Tree

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

 

Step 1: Firstly, 1223 is divided by 17 to get 71.

 

Step 2: Now divide 71 by 71 to get 1. Here, 71 is a prime number and cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 1223 is: 17 × 71.

 

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 1223: (1, 1223) and (17, 71).
  • Negative factor pairs of 1223: (-1, -1223) and (-17, -71).
