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 1453, how they are used in real life, and the tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1453 evenly are known as factors of 1453.
A factor of 1453 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 1453 are 1, 11, 13, 121, 143, and 1453.
Negative factors of 1453: -1, -11, -13, -121, -143, and -1453.
Prime factors of 1453: 11 and 13.
Prime factorization of 1453: 11 × 13 × 121.
The sum of factors of 1453: 1 + 11 + 13 + 121 + 143 + 1453 = 1742
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 1453. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1453 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1453 by 1, 1453 × 1 = 1453.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1453 after multiplying
11 × 131 = 1453
13 × 111.7692 = 1453 (not a whole number)
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1453 are: (1, 1453), (11, 131).
All these factor pairs result in 1453.
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 1453 by 1, 1453 ÷ 1 = 1453.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1453 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1453 ÷ 1 = 1453
1453 ÷ 11 = 131
1453 ÷ 13 = 111
.7692 (not a whole number)
Therefore, the factors of 1453 are: 1, 11, 13, 121, 143, 1453.
The factors can be found by dividing it with a prime number. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:
Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 1453 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1453 ÷ 11 = 131
131 ÷ 11 = 11.909 (not a whole number, stop here)
The prime factors of 1453 are 11 and 13.
The prime factorization of 1453 is: 11 × 13 × 121.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows -
Step 1: Firstly, 1453 is divided by 11 to get 131.
Step 2: Now divide 131 by 11, which is not wholly divisible.
So, the prime factorization of 1453 is: 11 × 13 × 121.
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 1453: (1, 1453), (11, 131).
Negative factor pairs of 1453: (-1, -1453), (-11, -131).
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 11 friends and 1453 candies. How will they divide it equally?
They will get 131 candies each.
To divide the candies equally, we need to divide the total candies with the number of friends.
1453/11 = 131
A rectangular garden has a length of 131 meters, and the total area is 1453 square meters. Find the width.
11 meters.
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1453 = 131 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 131 to the left side.
1453/131 = width
Width = 11.
There are 13 shelves and 1453 books. How many books will be on each shelf?
Each shelf will have 111.769 books, which means they cannot be equally divided.
To find the books on each shelf, divide the total books with the shelves.
1453/13 = 111.769 (not a whole number).
In a classroom, there are 1453 students, and they need to be divided into 11 groups. How many students are there in each group?
There are 131 students in each group.
Dividing the students with the total groups, we will get the number of students in each group.
1453/11 = 131
1453 apples need to be divided into 13 baskets. How many apples will go in each basket?
Each of the baskets will have 111.769 apples, which means they cannot be equally divided.
Divide total apples with baskets.
1453/13 = 111.769 (not a whole number).
