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 1195, how they are used in real life, and the tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1195 evenly are known as factors of 1195.
A factor of 1195 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 1195 are 1, 5, 239, and 1195.
Negative factors of 1195: -1, -5, -239, and -1195.
Prime factors of 1195: 5 and 239.
Prime factorization of 1195: 5 × 239.
The sum of factors of 1195: 1 + 5 + 239 + 1195 = 1440
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 1195. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1195 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1195 by 1, 1195 × 1 = 1195.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1195 after multiplying 5 × 239 = 1195
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1195 are: (1, 1195) and (5, 239).
All these factor pairs result in 1195. For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
Dividing the given number by 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 1195 by 1, 1195 ÷ 1 = 1195.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1195 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1195 ÷ 1 = 1195
1195 ÷ 5 = 239
Therefore, the factors of 1195 are: 1, 5, 239, and 1195.
The factors can be found by dividing with prime numbers. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:
Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 1195 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1195 ÷ 5 = 239
239 ÷ 239 = 1
The prime factors of 1195 are 5 and 239.
The prime factorization of 1195 is: 5 × 239.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows:
Step 1: Firstly, 1195 is divided by 5 to get 239.
Step 2: 239 is a prime number and cannot be divided further. So, the prime factorization of 1195 is: 5 × 239.
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 1195: (1, 1195) and (5, 239).
Negative factor pairs of 1195: (-1, -1195) and (-5, -239).
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 5 teams and 1195 participants. How will they distribute participants equally?
Each team will have 239 participants.
To divide the participants equally, we need to divide the total participants by the number of teams.
1195/5 = 239
A garden is rectangular, the length of the garden is 5 meters and the total area is 1195 square meters. Find the width.
239 meters.
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula, Area = length × width
1195 = 5 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 5 to the left side.
1195/5 = width
Width = 239.
There are 239 boxes and 1195 candies. How many candies will be in each box?
Each box will have 5 candies.
To find the candies in each box, divide the total candies by the boxes. 1195/239 = 5
In a school, there are 1195 students, and 5 classes. How many students are there in each class?
There are 239 students in each class.
Dividing the students by the total classes, we will get the number of students in each class.
1195/5 = 239
1195 books need to be arranged in 5 shelves. How many books will go on each shelf?
Each of the shelves has 239 books.
Divide total books by shelves.
1195/5 = 239
