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

To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1166. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1166 is the multiplication method.

Step 1: Multiply 1166 by 1, 1166 × 1 = 1166.

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1166 after multiplying 2 × 583 = 1166

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1166 are: (1, 1166) and (2, 583). All these factor pairs result in 1166. 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 the simple division method:

Step 1: Divide 1166 by 1, 1166 ÷ 1 = 1166.

Step 2: Continue dividing 1166 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

1166 ÷ 1 = 1166

1166 ÷ 2 = 583

Therefore, the factors of 1166 are: 1, 2, 583, 1166.

The factors can be found by dividing them with prime numbers. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:

1. Using prime factorization
2. Using factor tree

Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 1166 divide the number to break it down into the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

1166 ÷ 2 = 583

583 ÷ 583 = 1

The prime factors of 1166 are 2 and 583. The prime factorization of 1166 is: 2 × 583.

The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following steps show:

Step 1: Firstly, 1166 is divided by 2 to get 583. Here, 583 is a prime number and cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 1166 is: 2 × 583.

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 1166: (1, 1166) and (2, 583).
• Negative factor pairs of 1166: (-1, -1166) and (-2, -583).

• Factors: The numbers that divide the given number without leaving a remainder are called factors. For example, the factors of 1166 are 1, 2, 583, and 1166.

• Prime factors: The factors which are prime numbers. For example, 2 and 583 are prime factors of 1166.

• 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 1166 are (1, 1166) and (2, 583).

• Prime factorization: The expression of a number as the product of its prime factors. For example, the prime factorization of 1166 is 2 × 583.

• Negative factors: Factors of a number that are negative. For example, the negative factors of 1166 are -1, -2, -583, and -1166.
