Finding Factors using Multiplication Methods

This particular method often finds the pair of factors which, on multiplication together, produces 130. Let us find the pairs which, on multiplication, yields 130.


1×130=130


2×65=130


5×26=130


10×13=130


So, factors of 130 are: 1,2,5,10,13,26,65, and 130.

Finding Factors using Division Method

The division method finds the factors that evenly divides the given number 130. In this process, we have to divide 130 by all possible natural numbers less than 130 and check.


1,2,5,10,13,26,65, and 130 are the only factors that the number 130 has. So to verify the factors of 130 using the division method, we just need to divide 130 by each factor.


130/1 =130


130/2=65


130/5=26


130/10=13


130/13=10


130/26=5


130/65=2


130/130=1

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization is the easiest process to find prime factors. It decomposes 130 into a product of its prime integers.


Prime Factors of 130: 2,5,13.


Prime Factorization of 130: 2×5×13

Factor tree

The number 130 is written on top and two branches are extended.


Fill in those branches with a factor pair of the number above, i.e., 130.


Continue this process until each branch ends with a prime factor (number).


The first two branches of the factor tree of 130 are 2 and 65, then proceeding to 65, we get 5 and 13. So, now the factor tree for 130 is achieved. 


Factor Pairs


Positive pair factors:   (1,130), (2,65), (5,26), (10,13).


Negative pair factors:  (-1,-130), (-2,-65), (-5,-26), (-10,-13).
