What are the Factors of 766?

The numbers that divide 766 evenly are known as factors of 766.

 

A factor of 766 is a number that divides the number without remainder.

 

The factors of 766 are 1, 2, 383, and 766.

 

Negative factors of 766: -1, -2, -383, and -766.

 

Prime factors of 766: 2 and 383.

 

Prime factorization of 766: 2 × 383.

 

The sum of factors of 766: 1 + 2 + 383 + 766 = 1152

How to Find Factors of 766?

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
     
Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Multiplication

To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 766. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 766 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 766 by 1, 766 × 1 = 766.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 766 after multiplying 2 × 383 = 766

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 766 are: (1, 766), (2, 383). All these factor pairs result in 766.

 

For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Division Method

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 a simple division method

 

Step 1: Divide 766 by 1, 766 ÷ 1 = 766.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 766 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

766 ÷ 1 = 766
766 ÷ 2 = 383

 

Therefore, the factors of 766 are: 1, 2, 383, 766.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

The factors can be found by dividing 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 766 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

766 ÷ 2 = 383
383 ÷ 383 = 1

 

The prime factors of 766 are 2 and 383.

 

The prime factorization of 766 is: 2 × 383.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Factor Tree

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

 

Step 1: Firstly, 766 is divided by 2 to get 383.

 

Step 2: 383 is a prime number and cannot be divided further.

 

So, the prime factorization of 766 is: 2 × 383.

 

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 766: (1, 766), (2, 383).

 

Negative factor pairs of 766: (-1, -766), (-2, -383).

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Factors of 766

Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.

Mistake 1

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Forgetting the number itself and 1 is a factor

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Children might forget to add the given number itself and 1 as a factor. The number itself and 1 are the factors for every number. Always remember to include 1 and the number itself.

 

For example, in factors of 766, 1 and 766 are also factors.

Factors of 766 Examples

Ray, the Character from BrightChamps Explaining Math Concepts
Max, the Girl Character from BrightChamps

Problem 1

There are 2 teams and 766 participants. How will they divide the participants equally?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

They will have 383 participants each.

Explanation

To divide the participants equally, we need to divide the total participants by the number of teams.
766/2 = 383

Problem 2

A garden is rectangular, the length of the garden is 383 meters and the total area is 766 square meters. Find the width.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

2 meters.

Explanation

To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
766 = 383 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 383 to the left side.
766/383 = width
Width = 2.

Problem 3

There are 766 apples and 383 crates. How many apples will be in each crate?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

Each crate will have 2 apples.

Explanation

To find the apples in each crate, divide the total apples by the number of crates.
766/383 = 2
