Finding Factors Using Multiplication Method

The multiplication method finds the pair factors that give 192 as their product. Here’s a step-by-step process to follow:

 

Step 1: Find the pair of numbers whose product is 192. 


Step 2: These numbers are called the factor pairs.


Step 3: Make a list of numbers whose product will be 192.

 

A list of numbers whose products are 192 is given below:

 

1 × 192 = 192


2 × 96 = 192


3 × 64 =192


4 × 48 = 192


6 × 32 = 192


8 × 24 = 192

Finding Factors Using Division Method

The division method finds the numbers that fully divide the given number and gives zero as the remainder. Here’s a step-by-step process of the method:

 

Step 1: Number 1 will always be a factor because we can divide any number by 1. Example: 192÷1 = 192


Step 2: Move to the next integer. Both divisor and quotient are the factors. 

 

Overview of Factors of 192 using the division method

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

Prime factors are the prime numbers, having 1 and the numbers themselves as factors. Prime factorization is breaking down the number into its prime factors and expressing their product using exponents.

 

Prime Factors of 192: There are two prime factors of 192


Prime factors of 192: 2,3

 

Follow the steps given below to find the prime factors of 192

 

Step 1:  Divide 192 using the prime number 2

 

192÷2 = 96


96÷2 = 48


48÷2 = 24


24÷2 = 12


12÷2 = 6


6÷2 = 3

 

Step 2: Divide 3 with the prime number 3


3÷3 = 1


So, the prime Factorization expresses the product of prime numbers in its exponential form


Expressed as 26 × 31
