What are the Factors of 446?

The numbers that divide 446 evenly are known as factors of 446.

 

A factor of 446 is a number that divides the number without a remainder.

 

The factors of 446 are 1, 2, 223, and 446.

 

Negative factors of 446: -1, -2, -223, and -446.

 

Prime factors of 446: 2 and 223.

 

Prime factorization of 446: 2 × 223.

 

The sum of factors of 446: 1 + 2 + 223 + 446 = 672factors of 446

How to Find Factors of 446?

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

 

  • Finding factors using multiplication
  • Finding factors using the division method
  • Prime factors and prime factorization
     
Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Multiplication

To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 446. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 446 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 446 by 1, 446 × 1 = 446.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 446 after multiplying 2 × 223 = 446

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 446 are: (1, 446) and (2, 223). All these factor pairs result in 446.

 

For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Division Method

Dividing the given numbers with whole numbers until the remainder becomes zero and listing out the numbers that result as whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method

 

Step 1: Divide 446 by 1, 446 ÷ 1 = 446.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 446 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

446 ÷ 1 = 446
446 ÷ 2 = 223

 

Therefore, the factors of 446 are: 1, 2, 223, 446.

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

446 ÷ 2 = 223
223 ÷ 223 = 1
 

The prime factors of 446 are 2 and 223.

 

The prime factorization of 446 is: 2 × 223.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Factor Tree

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

 

Step 1: Firstly, 446 is divided by 2 to get 223.

 

Step 2: Now divide 223 by 223 to get 1. Here, 223 is already a prime number, that cannot be divided anymore.

 

So, the prime factorization of 446 is: 2 × 223.

 

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 446: (1, 446) and (2, 223).

 

Negative factor pairs of 446: (-1, -446) and (-2, -223).

Mistake 1

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Forgetting the number itself and 1 is a factor

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Children might forget to add the given number itself and 1 as a factor. The number itself and 1 are the factors for every word. Always remember to include 1 and the number itself.

 

For example, in factors of 446, 1 and 446 is also a factor.

Factors of 446 Examples

Ray, the Character from BrightChamps Explaining Math Concepts
Max, the Girl Character from BrightChamps

Problem 1

There are 223 boxes and 446 candies. How will they distribute it equally among the boxes?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

They will get 2 candies per box.

Explanation

To distribute the candies equally, we need to divide the total candies by the number of boxes.
446/223 = 2

Problem 2

A rectangular garden has a width of 223 meters and a total area of 446 square meters. Find the length.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

2 meters.

Explanation

To find the length of the garden, we use the formula,

Area = length × width
446 = length × 223
To find the value of length, we need to shift 223 to the left side.
446/223 = length

Length = 2.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

Each container will have 223 marbles.

Explanation

To find the marbles in each container, divide the total marbles by the containers.
446/2 = 223
