What are the Factors of 1953?

The numbers that divide 1953 evenly are known as factors of 1953.

 

A factor of 1953 is a number that divides the number without a remainder.

 

The factors of 1953 are 1, 3, 11, 33, 59, 177, 649, and 1953.

 

Negative factors of 1953: -1, -3, -11, -33, -59, -177, -649, and -1953.

 

Prime factors of 1953: 3, 11, and 59.

 

Prime factorization of 1953: 3 × 11 × 59.

 

The sum of factors of 1953: 1 + 3 + 11 + 33 + 59 + 177 + 649 + 1953 = 2886

How to Find Factors of 1953?

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 1953. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1953 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 1953 by 1, 1953 × 1 = 1953.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1953 after multiplying

 

3 × 651 = 1953

11 × 177 = 1953

33 × 59 = 1953

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1953 are: (1, 1953), (3, 651), (11, 177), (33, 59).

 

All these factor pairs result in 1953.

 

For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

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 1953 by 1, 1953 ÷ 1 = 1953.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 1953 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

 

1953 ÷ 1 = 1953

1953 ÷ 3 = 651

1953 ÷ 11 = 177

1953 ÷ 33 = 59

 

Therefore, the factors of 1953 are: 1, 3, 11, 33, 59, 177, 649, 1953.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

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 1953 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

 

1953 ÷ 3 = 651

651 ÷ 11 = 59

59 ÷ 59 = 1

 

The prime factors of 1953 are 3, 11, and 59.

 

The prime factorization of 1953 is: 3 × 11 × 59.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Factor Tree

The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following steps show

 

Step 1: Firstly, 1953 is divided by 3 to get 651.

 

Step 2: Now divide 651 by 11 to get 59.

 

Step 3: Divide 59 by 59 to get 1. Here, 59 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 1953 is: 3 × 11 × 59.

 

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 1953: (1, 1953), (3, 651), (11, 177), and (33, 59).

 

Negative factor pairs of 1953: (-1, -1953), (-3, -651), (-11, -177), and (-33, -59).

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 1953, 1 and 1953 are also factors.

Factors of 1953 Examples

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

Problem 1

There are 3 teams and 1953 participants. How will they distribute them equally?

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

They will have 651 participants each.

Explanation

To distribute the participants equally, we need to divide the total participants by the number of teams.

 

1953/3 = 651

Problem 2

A rectangular field has a length of 11 meters and a total area of 1953 square meters. What is the width?

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

177 meters.

Explanation

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

 

Area = length × width

 

1953 = 11 × width

 

To find the value of width, we need to shift 11 to the left side.

 

1953/11 = width

 

Width = 177.
