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 1809, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1809 evenly are known as factors of 1809.
A factor of 1809 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 1809 are 1, 3, 19, 27, 57, 63, 171, 513, 603, and 1809.
Negative factors of 1809: -1, -3, -19, -27, -57, -63, -171, -513, -603, and -1809.
Prime factors of 1809: 3 and 19.
Prime factorization of 1809: 3^2 × 19 × 19.
The sum of factors of 1809: 1 + 3 + 19 + 27 + 57 + 63 + 171 + 513 + 603 + 1809 = 3266
Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:
To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1809. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1809 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1809 by 1, 1809 × 1 = 1809.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1809 after multiplying
3 × 603 = 1809
19 × 95 = 1809
27 × 67 = 1809
57 × 31 = 1809
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1809 are: (1, 1809), (3, 603), (19, 95), (27, 67), (57, 31).
All these factor pairs result in 1809.
For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
Dividing the given number 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 simple division method -
Step 1: Divide 1809 by 1, 1809 ÷ 1 = 1809.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1809 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1809 ÷ 1 = 1809
1809 ÷ 3 = 603
1809 ÷ 19 = 95
1809 ÷ 27 = 67
1809 ÷ 57 = 31
Therefore, the factors of 1809 are: 1, 3, 19, 27, 57, 63, 171, 513, 603, 1809.
The factors can be found by dividing it with prime numbers. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:
Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 1809 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors until the remainder becomes 1.
1809 ÷ 3 = 603
603 ÷ 3 = 201
201 ÷ 3 = 67
67 ÷ 67 = 1
The prime factors of 1809 are 3 and 19.
The prime factorization of 1809 is: 3^2 × 19 × 19.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following steps show -
Step 1: Firstly, 1809 is divided by 3 to get 603.
Step 2: Now divide 603 by 3 to get 201.
Step 3: Then divide 201 by 3 to get 67.
Step 4: Divide 67 by 67 to get 1.
Here, 67 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore.
So, the prime factorization of 1809 is: 3^2 × 19 × 19.
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 1809: (1, 1809), (3, 603), (19, 95), (27, 67), and (57, 31).
Negative factor pairs of 1809: (-1, -1809), (-3, -603), (-19, -95), (-27, -67), and (-57, -31).
Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.
There are 57 people and 1809 candies. How will they divide it equally?
They will get 31 candies each.
To divide the candies equally, we need to divide the total candies with the number of people.
1809/57 = 31
A garden is rectangular, the length of the garden is 19 meters and the total area is 1809 square meters. Find the width.
95 meters.
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1809 = 19 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 19 to the left side.
1809/19 = width
Width = 95.
There are 27 baskets and 1809 apples. How many apples will be in each basket?
Each basket will have 67 apples.
To find the apples in each basket, divide the total apples with the baskets.
1809/27 = 67
In a class, there are 1809 students, and 3 groups. How many students are there in each group?
There are 603 students in each group.
Dividing the students with the total groups, we will get the number of students in each group.
1809/3 = 603
1809 books need to be arranged in 19 shelves. How many books will go on each shelf?
Each of the shelves has 95 books.
Divide total books with shelves.
1809/19 = 95
