Negative factors of 1270: -1, -2, -5, -10, -127, -254, -635, and -1270.

Prime factors of 1270: 2, 5, and 127.

Prime factorization of 1270: 2 × 5 × 127.

The sum of factors of 1270: 1 + 2 + 5 + 10 + 127 + 254 + 635 + 1270 = 2304

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

1. Finding factors using multiplication
2. Finding factors using the 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 1270. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1270 is the multiplication method.

Step 1: Multiply 1270 by 1, 1270 × 1 = 1270.

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1270 after multiplying

2 × 635 = 1270

5 × 254 = 1270

10 × 127 = 1270

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1270 are: (1, 1270), (2, 635), (5, 254), (10, 127). All these factor pairs result in 1270. For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

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 1270 by 1, 1270 ÷ 1 = 1270.

Step 2: Continue dividing 1270 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

1270 ÷ 1 = 1270

1270 ÷ 2 = 635

1270 ÷ 5 = 254

1270 ÷ 10 = 127

Therefore, the factors of 1270 are: 1, 2, 5, 10, 127, 254, 635, 1270.

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 1270 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

1270 ÷ 2 = 635

635 ÷ 5 = 127

127 ÷ 127 = 1

The prime factors of 1270 are 2, 5, and 127. The prime factorization of 1270 is: 2 × 5 × 127.

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

Step 1: Firstly, 1270 is divided by 2 to get 635.

Step 2: Now divide 635 by 5 to get 127.

Step 3: 127 is a prime number and cannot be divided any further. So, the prime factorization of 1270 is: 2 × 5 × 127.

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 1270: (1, 1270), (2, 635), (5, 254), and (10, 127).

• Negative factor pairs of 1270: (-1, -1270), (-2, -635), (-5, -254), and (-10, -127).

• Factors: The numbers that divide the given number without leaving a remainder are called factors. For example, the factors of 1270 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 127, 254, 635, and 1270.

• Prime factors: The factors which are prime numbers. For example, 2, 5, and 127 are prime factors of 1270.

• 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 1270 are (1, 1270), (2, 635), etc.

• Prime factorization: The expression of a number as a product of its prime factors. For example, the prime factorization of 1270 is 2 × 5 × 127.

• Multiples: Numbers that can be divided by another number without a remainder. For example, 1270 is a multiple of 5.
