What are the Factors of 113?

The numbers that divide 113 evenly are known as factors of 113. A factor of 113 is a number that divides the number without remainder. Since 113 is a prime number, the factors of 113 are 1 and 113.

 

Negative factors of 113: -1 and -113.

 

Prime factors of 113: 113.

 

Prime factorization of 113: 113 (since it is a prime number).

 

The sum of factors of 113: 1 + 113 = 114

How to Find Factors of 113?

Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:

 

  • Finding factors using multiplication
  • Finding factors using the division method
  • Prime factors and prime factorization
Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Multiplication

To find factors using multiplication, we identify pairs of numbers that multiply to give 113. Since 113 is a prime number, it can only be expressed as:

 

Step 1: Multiply 113 by 1, 113 × 1 = 113.

 

Therefore, the positive factor pair of 113 is: (1, 113). For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Division Method

Dividing the given number with whole numbers until the remainder becomes zero and listing out the numbers that result in whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method:

 

Step 1: Divide 113 by 1, 113 ÷ 1 = 113.

 

Step 2: Since 113 is a prime number, it is not divisible by any number other than 1 and itself.

 

Therefore, the factors of 113 are: 1 and 113.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

The factors can be found by dividing it with prime numbers. Since 113 is a prime number, it cannot be broken down into smaller prime numbers.

 

Therefore, its prime factorization is simple: 113 ÷ 113 = 1

 

The prime factor of 113 is 113 itself.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Factor Tree

A factor tree is a graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. However, for 113, since it is a prime number, the factor tree is straightforward: 113 is already a prime number, so it cannot be broken down further. Thus, the prime factorization of 113 is: 113.

 

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 113: (1, 113). Negative factor pairs of 113: (-1, -113).
