The numbers that divide 1780 evenly are known as factors of 1780.

A factor of 1780 is a number that divides the number without remainder.

The factors of 1780 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 89, 178, 356, 445, 890, and 1780.

Negative factors of 1780: -1, -2, -4, -5, -10, -20, -89, -178, -356, -445, -890, and -1780.

Prime factors of 1780: 2, 5, and 89.

Prime factorization of 1780: 2² × 5 × 89.

The sum of factors of 1780: 1 + 2 + 4 + 5 + 10 + 20 + 89 + 178 + 356 + 445 + 890 + 1780 = 3780

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 1780. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1780 is the multiplication method.

Step 1: Multiply 1780 by 1, 1780 × 1 = 1780.

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1780 after multiplying:

2 × 890 = 1780

4 × 445 = 1780

5 × 356 = 1780

10 × 178 = 1780

20 × 89 = 1780

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1780 are: (1, 1780), (2, 890), (4, 445), (5, 356), (10, 178), (20, 89).

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 1780 by 1, 1780 ÷ 1 = 1780.

Step 2: Continue dividing 1780 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

1780 ÷ 1 = 1780

1780 ÷ 2 = 890

1780 ÷ 4 = 445

1780 ÷ 5 = 356

1780 ÷ 10 = 178

1780 ÷ 20 = 89

Therefore, the factors of 1780 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 89, 178, 356, 445, 890, 1780.

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 1780 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

1780 ÷ 2 = 890

890 ÷ 2 = 445

445 ÷ 5 = 89

89 ÷ 89 = 1

The prime factors of 1780 are 2, 5, and 89.

The prime factorization of 1780 is: 2² × 5 × 89.

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

Step 1: Firstly, 1780 is divided by 2 to get 890.

Step 2: Now divide 890 by 2 to get 445.

Step 3: Then divide 445 by 5 to get 89.

Here, 89 is the smallest prime number that cannot be divided anymore.

So, the prime factorization of 1780 is: 2² × 5 × 89.

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 1780: (1, 1780), (2, 890), (4, 445), (5, 356), (10, 178), and (20, 89).

Negative factor pairs of 1780: (-1, -1780), (-2, -890), (-4, -445), (-5, -356), (-10, -178), and (-20, -89).

• Factors: The numbers that divide the given number without leaving a remainder are called factors. For example, the factors of 1780 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 89, 178, 356, 445, 890, and 1780.
   
• Prime factors: The factors which are prime numbers. For example, 2, 5, and 89 are prime factors of 1780.
   
• 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 1780 are (1, 1780), (2, 890), etc.
   
• Prime factorization: The process of breaking down a number into its prime factors. For example, the prime factorization of 1780 is 2² × 5 × 89.
   
• Divisibility: A concept that determines whether a number can be divided by another number without a remainder. For example, 1780 is divisible by 5.
