How to Find Factors of 24000?

Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:

 

  • Finding factors using multiplication

     
  • Finding factors using the division method

     
  • Prime factors and Prime factorization
Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Multiplication

To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 24000. Identifying the numbers that are multiplied to get 24000 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 24000 by 1, 24000 × 1 = 24000.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 24000 after multiplying:

(2 times 12000 = 24000)

(3 times 8000 = 24000)

(4 times 6000 = 24000)

(5 times 4800 = 24000) and so on.

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 24000 are numerous, including (1, 24000), (2, 12000), (3, 8000), (4, 6000), (5, 4800), etc. For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Division Method

Dividing the given number with whole numbers until the remainder becomes zero and listing out the numbers which result in whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following the simple division method -

 

Step 1: Divide 24000 by 1, 24000 ÷ 1 = 24000.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 24000 by numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

24000 ÷ 1 = 24000

24000 ÷ 2 = 12000

24000 ÷ 3 = 8000

24000 ÷ 4 = 6000

24000 ÷ 5 = 4800 and so on.

 

Therefore, the factors of 24000 include 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and many more.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

The factors can be found by dividing it by prime numbers. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:

 

  • Using prime factorization
  • Using a factor tree

 

Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 24000 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

24000 ÷ 2 = 12000

12000 ÷ 2 = 6000

6000 ÷ 2 = 3000

3000 ÷ 2 = 1500

1500 ÷ 2 = 750

750 ÷ 3 = 250

250 ÷ 5 = 50

50 ÷ 5 = 10

10 ÷ 5 = 2

 

The prime factors of 24000 are 2, 3, and 5.

 

The prime factorization of 24000 is: (26 times 3 times 53).

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Factor Tree

The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following steps show -

 

Step 1: Firstly, 24000 is divided by 2 to get 12000.

 

Step 2: Now divide 12000 by 2 to get 6000.

 

Step 3: Then divide 6000 by 2 to get 3000.

 

Step 4: Continue this process until reaching a prime number. Here, 2, 3, and 5 are the smallest prime numbers that cannot be divided further. So, the prime factorization of 24000 is: (26 times 3 times 53).

 

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 24000 include: (1, 24000), (2, 12000), (3, 8000), (4, 6000), (5, 4800), etc.

 

Negative factor pairs of 24000: (-1, -24000), (-2, -12000), (-3, -8000), (-4, -6000), (-5, -4800), etc.

Factors of 24000 Examples

Ray, the Character from BrightChamps Explaining Math Concepts
Max, the Girl Character from BrightChamps

Problem 1

There are 6 workers and 24000 bricks. How will they divide it equally?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

They will get 4000 bricks each.

Explanation

To divide the bricks equally, we need to divide the total number of bricks by the number of workers.

24000/6 = 4000

Problem 2

A swimming pool is rectangular, the length of the pool is 50 meters and the total area is 24000 square meters. Find the width?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

480 meters.

Explanation

To find the width of the pool, we use the formula,

Area = length × width

24000 = 50 × width

To find the value of width, we need to shift 50 to the left side.

24000/50 = width

Width = 480.

Problem 3

There are 300 trays and 24000 cupcakes. How many cupcakes will be in each tray?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

Each tray will have 80 cupcakes.

Explanation

To find the cupcakes in each tray, divide the total cupcakes by the trays.

24000/300 = 80
