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 2200, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.
The numbers that divide 2200 evenly are known as factors of 2200.
A factor of 2200 is a number that divides the number without remainder.
The factors of 2200 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 20, 22, 25, 40, 44, 50, 55, 88, 100, 110, 200, 220, 275, 440, 550, 1100, and 2200.
Negative factors of 2200: -1, -2, -4, -5, -8, -10, -11, -20, -22, -25, -40, -44, -50, -55, -88, -100, -110, -200, -220, -275, -440, -550, -1100, and -2200.
Prime factors of 2200: 2, 5, and 11.
Prime factorization of 2200: 2^3 × 5^2 × 11.
The sum of factors of 2200: 1 + 2 + 4 + 5 + 8 + 10 + 11 + 20 + 22 + 25 + 40 + 44 + 50 + 55 + 88 + 100 + 110 + 200 + 220 + 275 + 440 + 550 + 1100 + 2200 = 7056
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 2200. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 2200 is the multiplication method.
Step 1: Multiply 2200 by 1, 2200 × 1 = 2200.
Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 2200 after multiplying:
2 × 1100 = 2200
4 × 550 = 2200
5 × 440 = 2200
8 × 275 = 2200
10 × 220 = 2200
11 × 200 = 2200
20 × 110 = 2200
25 × 88 = 2200
40 × 55 = 2200
44 × 50 = 2200
Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 2200 are: (1, 2200), (2, 1100), (4, 550), (5, 440), (8, 275), (10, 220), (11, 200), (20, 110), (25, 88), (40, 55).
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 2200 by 1, 2200 ÷ 1 = 2200.
Step 2: Continue dividing 2200 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
2200 ÷ 1 = 2200
2200 ÷ 2 = 1100
2200 ÷ 4 = 550
2200 ÷ 5 = 440
2200 ÷ 8 = 275
2200 ÷ 10 = 220
2200 ÷ 11 = 200
2200 ÷ 20 = 110
2200 ÷ 25 = 88
2200 ÷ 40 = 55
Therefore, the factors of 2200 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 20, 22, 25, 40, 44, 50, 55, 88, 100, 110, 200, 220, 275, 440, 550, 1100, 2200.
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 2200 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.
2200 ÷ 2 = 1100
1100 ÷ 2 = 550
550 ÷ 2 = 275
275 ÷ 5 = 55
55 ÷ 5 = 11
11 ÷ 11 = 1
The prime factors of 2200 are 2, 5, and 11.
The prime factorization of 2200 is: 2^3 × 5^2 × 11.
The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows
Step 1: Firstly, 2200 is divided by 2 to get 1100.
Step 2: Now divide 1100 by 2 to get 550.
Step 3: Then divide 550 by 2 to get 275.
Step 4: Divide 275 by 5 to get 55.
Step 5: Divide 55 by 5 to get 11.
Here, 11 is the smallest prime number that cannot be divided anymore.
So, the prime factorization of 2200 is: 2^3 × 5^2 × 11.
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 2200: (1, 2200), (2, 1100), (4, 550), (5, 440), (8, 275), (10, 220), (11, 200), (20, 110), (25, 88), (40, 55).
Negative factor pairs of 2200: (-1, -2200), (-2, -1100), (-4, -550), (-5, -440), (-8, -275), (-10, -220), (-11, -200), (-20, -110), (-25, -88), (-40, -55).
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 22 teams and 2200 points. How will they distribute the points equally?
They will get 100 points each.
To distribute the points equally, we need to divide the total points by the number of teams.
2200/22 = 100
A garden is rectangular, the length of the garden is 20 meters, and the total area is 2200 square meters. Find the width?
110 meters.
To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,
Area = length × width
2200 = 20 × width
To find the value of width, we need to shift 20 to the left side.
2200/20 = width
Width = 110.
There are 11 boxes and 2200 marbles. How many marbles will be in each box?
Each box will have 200 marbles.
To find the marbles in each box, divide the total marbles by the number of boxes.
2200/11 = 200
In a class, there are 2200 students, and 100 groups. How many students are there in each group?
There are 22 students in each group.
Dividing the students by the total groups, we will get the number of students in each group.
2200/100 = 22
2200 chairs need to be arranged in 25 rows. How many chairs will go in each row?
Each row will have 88 chairs.
Divide total chairs by rows.
2200/25 = 88
