What are the Factors of 812?

The numbers that divide 812 evenly are known as factors of 812.

 

A factor of 812 is a number that divides the number without a remainder.

 

The factors of 812 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 29, 58, 116, 203, 406, and 812.

 

Negative factors of 812: -1, -2, -4, -7, -14, -29, -58, -116, -203, -406, and -812.

 

Prime factors of 812: 2, 7, and 29.

 

Prime factorization of 812: 2² × 7 × 29.

 

The sum of factors of 812: 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14 + 29 + 58 + 116 + 203 + 406 + 812 = 1652

How to Find Factors of 812?

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 812. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 812 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 812 by 1, 812 × 1 = 812.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 812 after multiplying

2 × 406 = 812

4 × 203 = 812

7 × 116 = 812

14 × 58 = 812

29 × 28 = 812

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 812 are: (1, 812), (2, 406), (4, 203), (7, 116), (14, 58), and (29, 28).

 

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 812 by 1, 812 ÷ 1 = 812.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 812 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

812 ÷ 1 = 812

812 ÷ 2 = 406

812 ÷ 4 = 203

812 ÷ 7 = 116

812 ÷ 14 = 58

812 ÷ 29 = 28

 

Therefore, the factors of 812 are: 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 29, 58, 116, 203, 406, and 812.

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

812 ÷ 2 = 406

406 ÷ 2 = 203

203 ÷ 7 = 29

29 ÷ 29 = 1

 

The prime factors of 812 are 2, 7, and 29.

 

The prime factorization of 812 is: 2² × 7 × 29.

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, 812 is divided by 2 to get 406.

 

Step 2: Now divide 406 by 2 to get 203.

 

Step 3: Then divide 203 by 7 to get 29. Here, 29 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 812 is: 2² × 7 × 29.

 

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 812: (1, 812), (2, 406), (4, 203), (7, 116), (14, 58), and (29, 28).

 

Negative factor pairs of 812: (-1, -812), (-2, -406), (-4, -203), (-7, -116), (-14, -58), and (-29, -28).

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Factors of 812

Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.

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 812, 1 and 812 are also factors.

Problem 1

There are 812 candies to be packed into boxes with each box holding 29 candies. How many full boxes can be packed?

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

28 full boxes can be packed.

Explanation

To find the number of full boxes, divide the total candies by the number of candies each box holds.

812/29 = 28

Problem 2

A rectangular plot has a length of 58 meters and a total area of 812 square meters. Find the width.

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

14 meters.

Explanation

To find the width of the plot, we use the formula, Area = length × width

812 = 58 × width

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

812/58 = width

Width = 14.

Problem 3

There are 116 oranges and 812 boxes. How many boxes will have oranges if each box can hold only one orange?

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

116 boxes will have oranges.

Explanation

To find out how many boxes will have oranges, divide the total number of oranges by the capacity of each box.

812/116 = 7
