Factors are the numbers that divide any given number evenly without a 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 1465, how they are used in real life, and the tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 1465 evenly are known as factors of 1465.
A factor of 1465 is a number that divides the number without a remainder.
The factors of 1465 are 1, 5, 293, and 1465.
Negative factors of 1465: -1, -5, -293, and -1465.
Prime factors of 1465: 5 and 293.
Prime factorization of 1465: 5 × 293.
The sum of factors of 1465: 1 + 5 + 293 + 1465 = 1764
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 1465. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1465 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 1465 by 1, 1465 × 1 = 1465.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1465 after multiplying
5 × 293 = 1465
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1465 are: (1, 1465) and (5, 293).
All these factor pairs result in 1465.
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 1465 by 1, 1465 ÷ 1 = 1465.
Step 2: Continue dividing 1465 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
1465 ÷ 1 = 1465
1465 ÷ 5 = 293
Therefore, the factors of 1465 are: 1, 5, 293, and 1465.
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 1465 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
1465 ÷ 5 = 293
293 ÷ 293 = 1
The prime factors of 1465 are 5 and 293.
The prime factorization of 1465 is: 5 × 293.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows -
Step 1: Firstly, 1465 is divided by 5 to get 293.
Step 2: Now 293 is already a prime number and cannot be divided further.
So, the prime factorization of 1465 is: 5 × 293.
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 1465: (1, 1465) and (5, 293).
Negative factor pairs of 1465: (-1, -1465) and (-5, -293).
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 5 teams and 1465 participants. How will they distribute them equally among teams?
Each team will have 293 participants.
To distribute the participants equally, we need to divide the total participants by the number of teams.
1465/5 = 293
A garden is rectangular, the length of the garden is 5 meters, and the total area is 1465 square meters. Find the width.
293 meters.
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
1465 = 5 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 5 to the left side.
1465/5 = width
Width = 293.
There are 293 baskets and 1465 apples. How many apples will be in each basket?
Each basket will have 5 apples.
To find the apples in each basket, divide the total apples by the baskets.
1465/293 = 5
In a stadium, there are 1465 seats, and 5 sections. How many seats are there in each section?
There are 293 seats in each section.
Dividing the seats by the total sections, we will get the number of seats in each section.
1465/5 = 293
1465 pages need to be bound into 5 books. How many pages will go in each book?
Each of the books has 293 pages.
Divide total pages by books.
1465/5 = 293
