What are the Factors of 1018?

The numbers that divide 1018 evenly are known as factors of 1018.

 

A factor of 1018 is a number that divides the number without remainder.

 

The factors of 1018 are 1, 2, 509, and 1018.

 

Negative factors of 1018: -1, -2, -509, and -1018.

 

Prime factors of 1018: 2 and 509.

 

Prime factorization of 1018: 2 × 509.

 

The sum of factors of 1018: 1 + 2 + 509 + 1018 = 1530

How to Find Factors of 1018?

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 1018. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1018 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 1018 by 1, 1018 × 1 = 1018.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1018 after multiplying 2 × 509 = 1018

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1018 are: (1, 1018) and (2, 509).

 

All these factor pairs result in 1018.

 

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 which result as whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method

 

Step 1: Divide 1018 by 1, 1018 ÷ 1 = 1018.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 1018 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

 

1018 ÷ 1 = 1018

1018 ÷ 2 = 509

 

Therefore, the factors of 1018 are: 1, 2, 509, and 1018.

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 1018 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

 

1018 ÷ 2 = 509

509 ÷ 509 = 1

 

The prime factors of 1018 are 2 and 509.

 

The prime factorization of 1018 is: 2 × 509.

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, 1018 is divided by 2 to get 509.

 

Step 2: Here, 509 is a prime number and cannot be divided further. So, the prime factorization of 1018 is: 2 × 509.

 

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 1018: (1, 1018) and (2, 509).

 

Negative factor pairs of 1018: (-1, -1018) and (-2, -509).

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Factors of 1018

Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.

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 1018, 1 and 1018 are also factors.

Problem 1

A gardener has 1018 seeds and wants to plant them in rows of 2. How many rows will there be?

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

There will be 509 rows.

Explanation

To determine the number of rows, divide the total seeds by the number of seeds per row.

 

1018/2 = 509

Problem 2

A rectangular banner has a length of 509 cm and an area of 1018 square cm. What is the width of the banner?

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

The width is 2 cm.

Explanation

To find the width of the banner, use the formula,

 

Area = length × width

 

1018 = 509 × width

 

To find the value of width, divide 1018 by 509.

 

Width = 1018/509 = 2
