Finding Factors Using Multiplication

To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 146689. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 146689 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 146689 by 1, 146689 × 1 = 146689.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 146689 after multiplying

 

383 × 383 = 146689

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 146689 are: (1, 146689) and (383, 383). 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 as whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method -

 

Step 1: Divide 146689 by 1, 146689 ÷ 1 = 146689.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 146689 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

 

146689 ÷ 1 = 146689

 

146689 ÷ 383 = 383

 

Therefore, the factors of 146689 are: 1, 383, and 146689.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

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 146689 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors until the remainder becomes 1.

 

146689 ÷ 383 = 383

 

383 ÷ 383 = 1

 

The prime factor of 146689 is 383. The prime factorization of 146689 is: 383².

Factor Tree

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

 

Step 1: Firstly, 146689 is divided by 383 to get 383.

 

Step 2: Now divide 383 by 383 to get 1. Here, 383 is the smallest prime number and cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 146689 is: 383².

 

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 146689: (1, 146689) and (383, 383).

 

  • Negative factor pairs of 146689: (-1, -146689) and (-383, -383).
