What are the Factors of 1637?

The numbers that divide 1637 evenly are known as factors of 1637.

 

A factor of 1637 is a number that divides the number without remainder.

 

The factors of 1637 are 1 and 1637.

 

Negative factors of 1637: -1 and -1637.

 

Prime factors of 1637: 1637.

 

Prime factorization of 1637: 1637 is a prime number.

 

The sum of factors of 1637: 1 + 1637 = 1638

How to Find Factors of 1637?

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 1637. Since 1637 is a prime number, the only multiplication pair is:

 

Step 1: Multiply 1637 by 1, 1637 × 1 = 1637.

 

Therefore, the positive factor pair of 1637 is: (1, 1637).

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

 

Step 1: Divide 1637 by 1, 1637 ÷ 1 = 1637.

 

Step 2: Check divisibility by numbers up to the square root of 1637.

 

Since 1637 is a prime number, it is only divisible by 1 and 1637.

 

Therefore, the factors of 1637 are: 1 and 1637.

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, since 1637 is a prime number, it cannot be broken down further.

 

The prime factor of 1637 is 1637 itself.

 

The prime factorization of 1637 is: 1637.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Factor Tree

The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. Since 1637 is a prime number, it cannot be broken down further. So, the prime factorization of 1637 is: 1637.

 

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 pair of 1637: (1, 1637).

 

Negative factor pair of 1637: (-1, -1637).

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 1637, 1 and 1637 are also factors.
