Finding Factors Using Multiplication Method

The multiplication method finds the pair of factors that give 1155 as their product.


Step 1: Find the pair of numbers whose product is 1155.


Step 2: The factors are those numbers that, when multiplied, give 1155.


Step 3: Make a list of numbers whose product will be 1155.

 

A list of numbers whose products are 1155 is given below:

  • 1 × 1155 = 1155
  • 3 × 385 = 1155
  • 5 × 231 = 1155
  • 7 × 165 = 1155
  • 11 × 105 = 1155
  • 15 × 77 = 1155
  • 21 × 55 = 1155
  • 33 × 35 = 1155


Thus, the factors of 1155 are 1, 3, 5, 7, 11, 15, 21, 33, 35, 55, 77, 105, 165, 231, 385, and 1155.

Finding Factors Using Division Method

The division method finds the numbers that fully divide the given number.


Step 1: Start by dividing 1155 by 1, as every number is divisible by 1.


Example: 1155÷1=11551155 \div 1 = 11551155÷1=1155.


Step 2: Move to the next integers and check for divisibility. Factors of 1155 are all numbers that divide it completely.
Thus, the factors of 1155 are 1, 3, 5, 7, 11, 15, 21, 33, 35, 55, 77, 105, 165, 231, 385, and 1155.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

Prime factorization breaks down 1155 into its prime factors.


Step 1: Divide 1155 by the smallest prime number (3):


1155÷3=385.


Step 2: Divide 385 by the next smallest prime number (5):


385÷5=77.


Step 3: Divide 77 by the next prime number (7):


77÷7=11.


Step 4: Finally, 11 is a prime number.
