What are the Factors of 3127?

The numbers that divide 3127 evenly are known as factors of 3127.

 

A factor of 3127 is a number that divides the number without remainder.

 

The factors of 3127 are 1, 37, 83, and 3127.

 

Negative factors of 3127: -1, -37, -83, and -3127.

 

Prime factors of 3127: 37 and 83.

 

Prime factorization of 3127: 37 × 83.

 

The sum of factors of 3127: 1 + 37 + 83 + 3127 = 3248

How to Find Factors of 3127?

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 3127. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 3127 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 3127 by 1, 3127 × 1 = 3127.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 3127 after multiplying 37 × 83 = 3127

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 3127 are: (1, 3127), (37, 83). All these factor pairs result in 3127. 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 in whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method -

 

Step 1: Divide 3127 by 1, 3127 ÷ 1 = 3127.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 3127 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

3127 ÷ 1 = 3127

3127 ÷ 37 = 83

3127 ÷ 83 = 37

3127 ÷ 3127 = 1

 

Therefore, the factors of 3127 are: 1, 37, 83, 3127.

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 3127 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

3127 ÷ 37 = 83

83 ÷ 83 = 1

 

The prime factors of 3127 are 37 and 83.

 

The prime factorization of 3127 is: 37 × 83.

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, 3127 is divided by 37 to get 83.

 

Step 2: Now divide 83 by 83 to get 1. Here, 83 is the smallest prime number, which cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 3127 is: 37 × 83.

 

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 3127: (1, 3127), (37, 83).

 

Negative factor pairs of 3127: (-1, -3127), (-37, -83).

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 3127, 1 and 3127 are also factors.

Problem 1

A group of 37 employees is assigned 3127 tasks. How many tasks will each employee get?

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

Each employee will get 83 tasks.

Explanation

To divide the tasks equally, we need to divide the total tasks by the number of employees.

3127/37 = 83

Problem 2

A rectangular garden has a length of 83 meters and a total area of 3127 square meters. Find the width.

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

37 meters.

Explanation

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

Area = length × width

3127 = 83 × width

To find the value of width, we divide the area by the length.

3127/83 = width

Width = 37.
