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 1448, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1448 evenly are known as factors of 1448.
A factor of 1448 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 1448 are 1, 2, 4, 362, 724, and 1448.
Negative factors of 1448: -1, -2, -4, -362, -724, and -1448.
Prime factors of 1448: 2 and 362.
Prime factorization of 1448: 2^2 × 362.
The sum of factors of 1448: 1 + 2 + 4 + 362 + 724 + 1448 = 2541
Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:
To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1448. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1448 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1448 by 1, 1448 × 1 = 1448.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1448 after multiplying
2 × 724 = 1448
4 × 362 = 1448
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1448 are: (1, 1448), (2, 724), (4, 362).
All these factor pairs result in 1448.
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 a simple division method -
Step 1: Divide 1448 by 1, 1448 ÷ 1 = 1448.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1448 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1448 ÷ 1 = 1448
1448 ÷ 2 = 724
1448 ÷ 4 = 362
Therefore, the factors of 1448 are: 1, 2, 4, 362, 724, 1448.
The factors can be found by dividing it with prime numbers. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:
Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 1448 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1448 ÷ 2 = 724
724 ÷ 2 = 362
362 ÷ 362 = 1
The prime factors of 1448 are 2 and 362.
The prime factorization of 1448 is: 2^2 × 362.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows -
Step 1: Firstly, 1448 is divided by 2 to get 724.
Step 2: Now divide 724 by 2 to get 362.
Step 3: Then divide 362 by 362 to get 1.
Here, 362 is the smallest prime number that cannot be divided anymore.
So, the prime factorization of 1448 is: 2^2 × 362.
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 1448: (1, 1448), (2, 724), (4, 362).
Negative factor pairs of 1448: (-1, -1448), (-2, -724), (-4, -362).
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 groups and 1448 marbles. How will they divide it equally?
They will get 362 marbles each.
To divide the marbles equally, we need to divide the total marbles with the number of groups.
1448/4 = 362
A rectangular garden has a length of 362 meters and a total area of 1448 square meters. Find the width.
4 meters.
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1448 = 362 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 362 to the left side.
1448/362 = width
Width = 4.
There are 2 containers and 1448 liters of oil. How many liters will be in each container?
Each container will have 724 liters.
To find the liters in each container, divide the total liters with the containers.
1448/2 = 724
In a school, there are 1448 students, and 362 classrooms. How many students are there in each classroom?
There are 4 students in each classroom.
Dividing the students with the total classrooms, we will get the number of students in each classroom.
1448/362 = 4
1448 bricks need to be arranged in 2 stacks. How many bricks will go in each stack?
Each stack has 724 bricks.
Divide total bricks with stacks.
1448/2 = 724
