The sum of factors of 2650: 1 + 2 + 5 + 10 + 53 + 106 + 265 + 530 + 1325 + 2650 = 4947

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

To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 2650. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 2650 is the multiplication method.

Step 1: Multiply 2650 by 1, 2650 × 1 = 2650.

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 2650 after multiplying

2 × 1325 = 2650

5 × 530 = 2650

10 × 265 = 2650

53 × 50 = 2650

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 2650 are: (1, 2650), (2, 1325), (5, 530), (10, 265), and (53, 50).

For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Dividing the given numbers with 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 2650 by 1, 2650 ÷ 1 = 2650.

Step 2: Continue dividing 2650 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

2650 ÷ 1 = 2650

2650 ÷ 2 = 1325

2650 ÷ 5 = 530

2650 ÷ 10 = 265

2650 ÷ 53 = 50

Therefore, the factors of 2650 are: 1, 2, 5, 10, 53, 106, 265, 530, 1325, 2650.

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 2650 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

2650 ÷ 2 = 1325

1325 ÷ 5 = 265

265 ÷ 5 = 53

53 ÷ 53 = 1

The prime factors of 2650 are 2, 5, and 53.

The prime factorization of 2650 is: 2 × 5² × 53.

The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows -

Step 1: Firstly, 2650 is divided by 2 to get 1325.

Step 2: Now divide 1325 by 5 to get 265.

Step 3: Then divide 265 by 5 to get 53.

Here, 53 is the smallest prime number that cannot be divided anymore.

So, the prime factorization of 2650 is: 2 × 5² × 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 2650: (1, 2650), (2, 1325), (5, 530), (10, 265), and (53, 50).

Negative factor pairs of 2650: (-1, -2650), (-2, -1325), (-5, -530), (-10, -265), and (-53, -50).

• Factors: The numbers that divide the given number without leaving a remainder are called factors. For example, the factors of 2650 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 53, 106, 265, 530, 1325, and 2650.
   
• Prime factors: The factors which are prime numbers. For example, 2, 5, and 53 are prime factors of 2650.
   
• Factor pairs: Two numbers in a pair that are multiplied to give the original number are called factor pairs. For example, the factor pairs of 2650 are (1, 2650), (2, 1325), etc.
   
• Prime factorization: The process of finding which prime numbers multiply together to make the original number. For example, the prime factorization of 2650 is 2 × 5² × 53.
   
• Multiples: The result of multiplying a number by an integer. For example, 2650 is a multiple of 53.
