How to Find Factors of 27000?

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 27000. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 27000 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 27000 by 1, 27000 × 1 = 27000.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 27000 after multiplying

2 × 13500 = 27000

3 × 9000 = 27000

5 × 5400 = 27000

6 × 4500 = 27000

 

Therefore, some positive factor pairs of 27000 are: (1, 27000), (2, 13500), (3, 9000), (5, 5400), (6, 4500). 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 a simple division method -

 

Step 1: Divide 27000 by 1, 27000 ÷ 1 = 27000.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 27000 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

27000 ÷ 1 = 27000

27000 ÷ 2 = 13500

27000 ÷ 3 = 9000

27000 ÷ 5 = 5400

27000 ÷ 6 = 4500

 

Therefore, some factors of 27000 are: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, and so on.

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 27000 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

27000 ÷ 2 = 13500

13500 ÷ 2 = 6750

6750 ÷ 2 = 3375

3375 ÷ 3 = 1125

1125 ÷ 3 = 375

375 ÷ 3 = 125

125 ÷ 5 = 25

25 ÷ 5 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1

 

The prime factors of 27000 are 2, 3, and 5.

 

The prime factorization of 27000 is: 23 × 33 × 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, 27000 is divided by 2 to get 13500.

 

Step 2: Now divide 13500 by 2 to get 6750.

 

Step 3: Then divide 6750 by 2 to get 3375.

 

Step 4: Divide 3375 by 3 to get 1125. This process continues until we reach the prime number 5. So, the prime factorization of 27000 is: 23 × 33 × 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 27000: (1, 27000), (2, 13500), (3, 9000), (5, 5400), (6, 4500), etc.

 

Negative factor pairs of 27000: (-1, -27000), (-2, -13500), (-3, -9000), (-5, -5400), (-6, -4500), etc.

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 factors for every number. Always remember to include 1 and the number itself.

 

For example, in factors of 27000, 1 and 27000 are also factors.

Factors of 27000 Examples

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

Problem 1

There are 12 teams and 27000 points. How will they divide the points equally?

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

Each team will get 2250 points.

Explanation

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

27000/12 = 2250

Problem 2

A swimming pool is rectangular, the length of the pool is 60 meters and the total area is 27000 square meters. Find the width.

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

450 meters.

Explanation

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

Area = length × width

27000 = 60 × width

To find the value of width, we need to shift 60 to the left side.

27000/60 = width

Width = 450.

Problem 3

There are 18 trucks and 27000 kilograms of cargo. How much will each truck carry?

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

Each truck will carry 1500 kilograms.

Explanation

To find the cargo for each truck, divide the total cargo by the number of trucks.

27000/18 = 1500
