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 173250. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 173250 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 173250 by 1, 173250 × 1 = 173250.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 173250 after multiplying
2 × 86625 = 173250
3 × 57750 = 173250
5 × 34650 = 173250
6 × 28875 = 173250 ... (continue with other factor pairs)
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 173250 include: (1, 173250), (2, 86625), (3, 57750), (5, 34650), (6, 28875), etc. For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.
Dividing the given numbers with 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 173250 by 1, 173250 ÷ 1 = 173250.
Step 2: Continue dividing 173250 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
173250 ÷ 1 = 173250
173250 ÷ 2 = 86625
173250 ÷ 3 = 57750
173250 ÷ 5 = 34650
173250 ÷ 6 = 28875 ... (continue with other whole number division results)
Therefore, the factors of 173250 include: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 25, 30, 45, 50, 75, 90, 150, 225, 250, 450, 750, 1125, 1150, 2250, 4500, 3450, 5175, 8625, 10350, 17250, 34500, 51750, 86250, and 173250.
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 173250 divide the number to break it down into the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
173250 ÷ 2 = 86625
86625 ÷ 3 = 28875
28875 ÷ 3 = 9625
9625 ÷ 5 = 1925
1925 ÷ 5 = 385
385 ÷ 5 = 77
77 ÷ 7 = 11
11 ÷ 11 = 1
The prime factors of 173250 are 2, 3, and 5. The prime factorization of 173250 is: 2 × 3² × 5⁴ × 23.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows -
Step 1: Firstly, 173250 is divided by 2 to get 86625.
Step 2: Now divide 86625 by 3 to get 28875.
Step 3: Then divide 28875 by 3 to get 9625.
Step 4: Divide 9625 by 5 to get 1925.
Step 5: Divide 1925 by 5 to get 385.
Step 6: Divide 385 by 5 to get 77.
Step 7: Divide 77 by 7 to get 11.
Step 8: Divide 11 by 11 to get 1. Here, the numbers 2, 3, 5, and 11 are the smallest prime numbers involved in the factor tree. So, the prime factorization of 173250 is: 2 × 3² × 5⁴ × 23.
Factor Pairs: Two numbers that are multiplied to give a specific number are called factor pairs. Both positive and negative factors constitute factor pairs.
