What are the Factors of 1505?

The numbers that divide 1505 evenly are known as factors of 1505.

 

A factor of 1505 is a number that divides the number without a remainder.

 

The factors of 1505 are 1, 3, 5, 15, 100, 301, and 1505.

 

Negative factors of 1505: -1, -3, -5, -15, -100, -301, and -1505.

 

Prime factors of 1505: 3, 5, and 100.

 

Prime factorization of 1505: 3 × 5 × 100.

 

The sum of factors of 1505: 1 + 3 + 5 + 15 + 100 + 301 + 1505 = 1930

How to Find Factors of 1505?

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

 

  • Finding factors using multiplication
     
  • Finding factors using the 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 1505. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1505 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 1505 by 1, 1505 × 1 = 1505.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1505 after multiplying

3 × 501 = 1505

5 × 301 = 1505

15 × 100 = 1505

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1505 are: (1, 1505), (3, 501), (5, 301), and (15, 100).

 

All these factor pairs result in 1505.

 

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 1505 by 1, 1505 ÷ 1 = 1505.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 1505 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

1505 ÷ 1 = 1505

1505 ÷ 3 = 501

1505 ÷ 5 = 301

1505 ÷ 15 = 100

 

Therefore, the factors of 1505 are: 1, 3, 5, 15, 100, 301, 1505.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

The factors can be found by dividing it with a 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 1505 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

1505 ÷ 3 = 501

501 ÷ 3 = 167

167 ÷ 5 = 33.4 (not divisible)

 

167 is a prime number.

 

The prime factors of 1505 are 3, 5, and 167.

 

The prime factorization of 1505 is: 3 × 5 × 167.

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, 1505 is divided by 3 to get 501.

 

Step 2: Now divide 501 by 3 to get 167.

 

Step 3: 167 is a prime number and cannot be divided further. So, the prime factorization of 1505 is: 3 × 5 × 167.

 

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 1505: (1, 1505), (3, 501), (5, 301), and (15, 100).

 

Negative factor pairs of 1505: (-1, -1505), (-3, -501), (-5, -301), and (-15, -100).

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 1505, 1 and 1505 are also factors.

Factors of 1505 Examples

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

Problem 1

There are 15 employees and 1505 work hours. How will they distribute it evenly?

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

They will get approximately 100.33 work hours each.

Explanation

To divide the work hours equally, we need to divide the total work hours by the number of employees.

1505/15 ≈ 100.33

Problem 2

A building has a base area of 1505 square meters and a length of 100 meters. Find the width.

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

15.05 meters.

Explanation

To find the width of the building, we use the formula, Area = length × width

1505 = 100 × width

To find the value of width, we need to shift 100 to the left side.

1505/100 = width

Width = 15.05.

Problem 3

There are 301 students and 1505 books. How many books will each student get?

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

Each student will get 5 books.

Explanation

To find the books each student gets, divide the total books by the number of students.

1505/301 = 5
