Factors are the numbers that divide any given number evenly without remainder. In daily life, we use factors for tasks like sharing items equally, arranging things, etc. In this topic, we will learn about the factors of 1513, how they are used in real life, and the tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1513 evenly are known as factors of 1513.
A factor of 1513 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 1513 are 1, 37, 41, and 1513.
Negative factors of 1513: -1, -37, -41, and -1513.
Prime factors of 1513: 37 and 41.
Prime factorization of 1513: 37 × 41.
The sum of factors of 1513: 1 + 37 + 41 + 1513 = 1592
Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:
To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1513. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1513 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1513 by 1, 1513 × 1 = 1513.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1513 after multiplying
37 × 41 = 1513
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1513 are: (1, 1513) and (37, 41). All these factor pairs result in 1513.
For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
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 the simple division method
Step 1: Divide 1513 by 1, 1513 ÷ 1 = 1513.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1513 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1513 ÷ 1 = 1513
1513 ÷ 37 = 41
1513 ÷ 41 = 37
Therefore, the factors of 1513 are: 1, 37, 41, and 1513.
The factors can be found by dividing with prime numbers. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:
Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 1513 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1513 ÷ 37 = 41
41 ÷ 41 = 1
The prime factors of 1513 are 37 and 41.
The prime factorization of 1513 is: 37 × 41.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows
Step 1: Firstly, 1513 is divided by 37 to get 41.
Step 2: Now divide 41 by 41 to get 1. Here, 41 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 1513 is: 37 × 41.
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 1513: (1, 1513) and (37, 41).
Negative factor pairs of 1513: (-1, -1513) and (-37, -41).
Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.
There are 37 friends and 1513 candies. How will they divide it equally?
They will get 41 candies each.
To divide the candies equally, we need to divide the total candies by the number of friends.
1513/37 = 41
A field is rectangular, the length of the field is 41 meters and the total area is 1513 square meters. Find the width?
37 meters.
To find the width of the field, we use the formula, Area = length × width
1513 = 41 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 41 to the left side.
1513/41 = width
Width = 37.
There are 1513 apples and 1513 baskets. How many apples will be in each basket?
Each basket will have 1 apple.
To find the apples in each basket, divide the total apples by the baskets.
1513/1513 = 1
In a class, there are 1513 students, and 1 group. How many students are there in each group?
There are 1513 students in each group.
Dividing the students by the total groups, we will get the number of students in each group.
1513/1 = 1513
1513 books need to be arranged in 37 shelves. How many books will go on each shelf?
Each of the shelves has 41 books.
Divide total books by shelves.
1513/37 = 41
