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 1648, how they are used in real life, and the tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1648 evenly are known as factors of 1648. A factor of 1648 is a number that divides the number without remainder. The factors of 1648 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 103, 206, 412, 824, and 1648. Negative factors of 1648: -1, -2, -4, -8, -16, -103, -206, -412, -824, and -1648. Prime factors of 1648: 2 and 103. Prime factorization of 1648: 2^4 × 103. The sum of factors of 1648: 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 103 + 206 + 412 + 824 + 1648 = 3224
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 1648. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1648 is the multiplication method. Step 1: Multiply 1648 by 1, 1648 × 1 = 1648. Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1648 after multiplying 2 × 824 = 1648 4 × 412 = 1648 8 × 206 = 1648 16 × 103 = 1648 Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1648 are: (1, 1648), (2, 824), (4, 412), (8, 206), (16, 103). All these factor pairs result in 1648. 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 a whole number as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method - Step 1: Divide 1648 by 1, 1648 ÷ 1 = 1648. Step 2: Continue dividing 1648 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0. 1648 ÷ 1 = 1648 1648 ÷ 2 = 824 1648 ÷ 4 = 412 1648 ÷ 8 = 206 1648 ÷ 16 = 103 Therefore, the factors of 1648 are: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 103, 206, 412, 824, 1648.
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 1648 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1. 1648 ÷ 2 = 824 824 ÷ 2 = 412 412 ÷ 2 = 206 206 ÷ 2 = 103 103 ÷ 103 = 1 The prime factors of 1648 are 2 and 103. The prime factorization of 1648 is: 2^4 × 103.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows - Step 1: Firstly, 1648 is divided by 2 to get 824. Step 2: Now divide 824 by 2 to get 412. Step 3: Then divide 412 by 2 to get 206. Step 4: Divide 206 by 2 to get 103. Here, 103 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 1648 is: 2^4 × 103. 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 1648: (1, 1648), (2, 824), (4, 412), (8, 206), and (16, 103). Negative factor pairs of 1648: (-1, -1648), (-2, -824), (-4, -412), (-8, -206), and (-16, -103).
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 4 classrooms and 1648 chairs. How will they distribute the chairs equally?
Each classroom will get 412 chairs.
To divide the chairs equally, we need to divide the total chairs with the number of classrooms. 1648/4 = 412
A garden is rectangular, the length of the garden is 16 meters and the total area is 1648 square meters. Find the width.
103 meters.
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula, Area = length × width 1648 = 16 × width To find the value of width, we need to shift 16 to the left side. 1648/16 = width Width = 103.
There are 8 trucks and 1648 boxes. How many boxes will each truck carry?
Each truck will carry 206 boxes.
To find the boxes in each truck, divide the total boxes with the trucks. 1648/8 = 206
In a school, there are 1648 students, and 16 buses. How many students are there in each bus?
There are 103 students in each bus.
Dividing the students with the total buses, we will get the number of students in each bus. 1648/16 = 103
1648 books need to be arranged in 8 shelves. How many books will go on each shelf?
Each of the shelves has 206 books.
Divide total books with shelves. 1648/8 = 206
Factors: The numbers that divide the given number without leaving a remainder are called factors. For example, the factors of 1648 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 103, 206, 412, 824, and 1648. Prime factors: The factors which are prime numbers. For example, 2 and 103 are prime factors of 1648. 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 1648 are (1, 1648), (2, 824), etc. Composite number: A number that has more than two factors. For example, 1648 is a composite number. Prime factorization: The expression of a number as the product of its prime factors. For example, the prime factorization of 1648 is 2^4 × 103.
