What are the Factors of 2809?

The numbers that divide 2809 evenly are known as factors of 2809.

 

A factor of 2809 is a number that divides the number without remainder.

 

The factors of 2809 are 1, 53, and 2809.

 

Negative factors of 2809: -1, -53, and -2809.

 

Prime factors of 2809: 53.

 

Prime factorization of 2809: 53².

 

The sum of factors of 2809: 1 + 53 + 2809 = 2863

How to Find Factors of 2809?

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

 

  • Finding factors using multiplication

     
  • Finding factors using 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 2809. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 2809 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 2809 by 1, 2809 × 1 = 2809.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 2809 after multiplying 53 × 53 = 2809

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 2809 are: (1, 2809), (53, 53). 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 2809 by 1, 2809 ÷ 1 = 2809.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 2809 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

 

2809 ÷ 1 = 2809

2809 ÷ 53 = 53

 

Therefore, the factors of 2809 are: 1, 53, and 2809.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

The factors can be found by dividing it with a prime number. 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 2809 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

 

2809 ÷ 53 = 53

53 ÷ 53 = 1

 

The prime factor of 2809 is 53.

 

The prime factorization of 2809 is: 53².

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, 2809 is divided by 53 to get 53.

 

Step 2: Now divide 53 by 53 to get 1. Here, 53 is the prime number, that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 2809 is: 53².

 

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 2809: (1, 2809), (53, 53).

 

Negative factor pairs of 2809: (-1, -2809), (-53, -53).

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 number. Always remember to include 1 and the number itself.

 

For example, in factors of 2809, 1 and 2809 are also factors.

Factors of 2809 Examples

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

Problem 1

There are 53 students and 2809 candies. How will they divide it equally?

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

They will get 53 candies each.

Explanation

To divide the candies equally, we need to divide the total candies by the number of students.

 

2809/53 = 53

Problem 2

A garden is square-shaped, and the area of the garden is 2809 square meters. Find the length of one side of the garden.

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

53 meters.

Explanation

To find the length of one side of the garden, we use the formula for the area of a square,

 

Area = side × side

 

2809 = side × side

 

To find the value of one side, we take the square root of 2809.

 

√2809 = 53

Problem 3

There are 2809 books and 53 shelves. How many books will be on each shelf?

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

Each shelf will have 53 books.

Explanation

To find the number of books on each shelf, divide the total number of books by the number of shelves.

 

2809/53 = 53

Problem 4

A rectangular field has a width of 53 meters, and the total area is 2809 square meters. Find the length.

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

53 meters.

Explanation

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

 

Area = length × width

 

2809 = length × 53

 

To find the value of length, we divide 2809 by 53.

 

2809/53 = 53
