Factors are the numbers that divide any given number evenly without remainder. In daily life, we use factors for tasks like sharing the items equally, arranging things, etc. In this topic, we will learn about the factors of 1814, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1814 evenly are known as factors of 1814.
A factor of 1814 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 1814 are 1, 2, 907, and 1814.
Negative factors of 1814: -1, -2, -907, and -1814.
Prime factors of 1814: 2 and 907.
Prime factorization of 1814: 2 × 907.
The sum of factors of 1814: 1 + 2 + 907 + 1814 = 2724
Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:
To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1814. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1814 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1814 by 1, 1814 × 1 = 1814.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1814 after multiplying 2 × 907 = 1814
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1814 are: (1, 1814) and (2, 907).
All these factor pairs result in 1814.
For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
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 a simple division method -
Step 1: Divide 1814 by 1, 1814 ÷ 1 = 1814.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1814 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1814 ÷ 1 = 1814
1814 ÷ 2 = 907
Therefore, the factors of 1814 are: 1, 2, 907, 1814.
The factors can be found by dividing it with a prime number. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:
Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 1814 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1814 ÷ 2 = 907
907 ÷ 907 = 1
The prime factors of 1814 are 2 and 907.
The prime factorization of 1814 is: 2 × 907.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows -
Step 1: Firstly, 1814 is divided by 2 to get 907.
Step 2: 907 is a prime number and cannot be divided further.
So, the prime factorization of 1814 is: 2 × 907.
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 1814: (1, 1814) and (2, 907).
Negative factor pairs of 1814: (-1, -1814) and (-2, -907).
Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.
There are 2 teams and 1814 fans. How will they divide it equally to sit in the stadium?
They will get 907 fans each.
To divide the fans equally, we need to divide the total fans with the number of teams.
1814/2 = 907
A rectangular garden has a width of 2 meters and the total area is 1814 square meters. Find the length.
907 meters.
To find the length of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1814 = length × 2
To find the value of the length, we need to shift 2 to the left side.
1814/2 = length
Length = 907.
There are 907 chairs and 1814 students. How many students will share each chair?
Each chair will be shared by 2 students.
To find how many students will share each chair, divide the total students by the chairs.
1814/907 = 2
In a class, there are 1814 books, and 2 shelves. How many books are there on each shelf?
There are 907 books on each shelf.
Dividing the books by the total shelves, we will get the number of books on each shelf.
1814/2 = 907
1814 apples need to be packed into 2 boxes. How many apples will go in each box?
Each of the boxes has 907 apples.
Divide total apples by boxes.
1814/2 = 907
