How to find the factors of 146?

Factors help us divide numbers equally, making calculations faster and easier. Given below are the methods used to find factors: 
 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Multiplication

In this method, we take two numbers and find the product of those two numbers to get the required number.


Example: 


2×73=146


1×146=146


This means that 1, 2,73, and 146 are the factors of 146.
 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors by Division Method

We divide 146 by numbers starting from 1 and see which number gives the remainder of 0.


146 1=146


146 2=73


146 73=2


146 146=1


So the factors are 1,2,73 and 146.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

The breaking down of numbers as prime factors is called prime factorization. The factors of 146 are:


146=2x73
 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Factor tree

A factor tree shows how a number can be parted down into prime factors.146 is broken down into two factors, 2 and 73.

Positive and negative pairs:

The factors of a number will have both the positive and negative numbers:


Positive :(1,2,73,146)


Negative:(-1,-2,-73,-146)

Problem 1

Check if 146 is Divisible by 3.

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

A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of each digit of the given number is divisible by 3.


1+4+6=11,


Since 11 is not divisible by 3, 146 is not divisible by 3
 

Explanation

Since the sum of the digits of 146 is 11 and 11 is not divisible by 3, we conclude that 146 is not divisible by 3.

Problem 2

Find the Sum of All Positive Factors of 146.

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

1, 2, 73, and 146 are the positive factors of 146.


1+2+73+146=222
 

Explanation

The factors of 146 are 1,2,73 and 146. Adding them gives 222, so the sum of all positive factors of 146 is 222.

Problem 3

Calculate the Remainder When 146 is divided by 5.

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

146÷5=29 remainder 11


The remainder is 1.
 

Explanation

146 is divisible by 5 and the quotient is 29, with remainder as 1. This means 146=5×29+1, so the remainder is 1.
