Factors are the numbers that divide another number equally, without leaving any remainder. When you multiply two numbers to find another number, the two which are multiplied are factors. You can think of factors as the building blocks that will help you make numbers.

Finding Factors Using Multiplication

In this method, we take two numbers and find the product of those two numbers to get the required number.

 

Example: 


3 × 65=195


1×195=195


This means that 1, 3, 5, 15, 39, and 195 are the factors of 195.

Finding Factors by Division Method

We divide 195 by numbers starting from 1 and see which number gives the remainder of 0.


195  ÷1=195


195 ÷ 3=65


195  ÷5=39


195  ÷15=13


195  ÷39=5


195  ÷65=3


195  ÷195=1


1, 3, 5, 15, 39, and 195 are the factors of 195.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

The breaking down of numbers as prime factors is called prime factorization. The factors of 195 are:


195=3 × 5 × 13

Factor tree

A factor tree shows how a number can be parted down into prime factors.195 is broken down into two factors, 195 splits into 3 and 65


65 further splits into 5 and, 13


The prime factors are therefore: 3, 5, and 13.

Factor Pairs

Positive and negative pairs:


The factors of a number will have both the positive and negative numbers:


Positive :( 1, 3, 5, 15, 39, and 195)


Negative:(-1,- 3,- 5,- 15, -39, and -195)

Important Glossaries for Factors of 195

  • Prime Factorization: It is a method of splitting down a number into its factors. For example: 195=3 × 5 × 13

 

  • Divisibility: A number is said to be divisible by a certain number, when we divide a number it should give a whole number and not a decimal.

 

  • Even number: A number that when divided by 2 gives a whole number.
