What are the Factors of 1696?

The numbers that divide 1696 evenly are known as factors of 1696.

 

A factor of 1696 is a number that divides the number without remainder.

 

The factors of 1696 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 53, 106, 212, 424, 848, and 1696.

 

Negative factors of 1696: -1, -2, -4, -8, -16, -53, -106, -212, -424, -848, and -1696.

 

Prime factors of 1696: 2 and 53.

 

Prime factorization of 1696: 24 × 53.

 

The sum of factors of 1696: 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 53 + 106 + 212 + 424 + 848 + 1696 = 3370

How to Find Factors of 1696?

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 1696. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1696 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 1696 by 1, 1696 × 1 = 1696.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1696 after multiplying

 

2 × 848 = 1696

4 × 424 = 1696

8 × 212 = 1696

16 × 106 = 1696

53 × 32 = 1696

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1696 are: (1, 1696), (2, 848), (4, 424), (8, 212), (16, 106), (53, 32).

 

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 the simple division method

 

Step 1: Divide 1696 by 1, 1696 ÷ 1 = 1696.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 1696 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

 

1696 ÷ 1 = 1696

1696 ÷ 2 = 848

1696 ÷ 4 = 424

1696 ÷ 8 = 212

1696 ÷ 16 = 106

1696 ÷ 53 = 32

 

Therefore, the factors of 1696 are: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 53, 106, 212, 424, 848, 1696.

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 1696 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

 

1696 ÷ 2 = 848

848 ÷ 2 = 424

424 ÷ 2 = 212

212 ÷ 2 = 106

106 ÷ 53 = 2

2 ÷ 2 = 1

 

The prime factors of 1696 are 2 and 53.

 

The prime factorization of 1696 is: 24 × 53.

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, 1696 is divided by 2 to get 848.

 

Step 2: Now divide 848 by 2 to get 424.

 

Step 3: Then divide 424 by 2 to get 212.

 

Step 4: Divide 212 by 2 to get 106.

 

Step 5: Divide 106 by 53 to get 2. Here, 2 is the smallest prime number that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 1696 is: 24 × 53.

 

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 1696: (1, 1696), (2, 848), (4, 424), (8, 212), (16, 106), and (53, 32).

 

Negative factor pairs of 1696: (-1, -1696), (-2, -848), (-4, -424), (-8, -212), (-16, -106), and (-53, -32).

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 1696, 1 and 1696 are also factors.

Problem 1

There are 16 teams and 1696 medals. How will they divide it equally?

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

They will get 106 medals each.

Explanation

To divide the medals equally, we need to divide the total medals with the number of teams.

 

1696/16 = 106

Problem 2

A garden is rectangular, the length of the garden is 53 meters and the total area is 1696 square meters. Find the width?

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

32 meters.

Explanation

To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,

 

Area = length × width

 

1696 = 53 × width

 

To find the value of width, we need to shift 53 to the left side.

 

1696/53 = width

 

Width = 32.
