What are the Factors of 339?

The numbers that divide 339 evenly are known as factors of 339.

 

A factor of 339 is a number that divides the number without remainder.

 

The factors of 339 are 1, 3, 113, and 339.

 

Negative factors of 339: -1, -3, -113, and -339.

 

Prime factors of 339: 3 and 113.

 

Prime factorization of 339: 3 × 113.

 

The sum of factors of 339: 1 + 3 + 113 + 339 = 456factors of 339

How to Find Factors of 339?

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 the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 339. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 339 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 339 by 1, 339 × 1 = 339.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 339 after multiplying 3 × 113 = 339

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 339 are: (1, 339) and (3, 113).

 

All these factor pairs result in 339.

 

For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Division Method

Divide the given numbers with whole numbers until the remainder becomes zero and list out the numbers which result as whole numbers as factors.

 

Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method

 

Step 1: Divide 339 by 1, 339 ÷ 1 = 339.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 339 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

 

339 ÷ 1 = 339

 

339 ÷ 3 = 113

 

Therefore, the factors of 339 are: 1, 3, 113, and 339.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

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

 

  • Using prime factorization
     
  • Using factor tree

 

Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 339 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

 

339 ÷ 3 = 113

113 ÷ 113 = 1

 

The prime factors of 339 are 3 and 113.

 

The prime factorization of 339 is: 3 × 113.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Factor Tree

The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows

 

Step 1: Firstly, 339 is divided by 3 to get 113.

 

Step 2: Now divide 113 by 113 to get 1. Here, 113 is the smallest prime number that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 339 is: 3 × 113.

 

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 339: (1, 339) and (3, 113).

 

Negative factor pairs of 339: (-1, -339) and (-3, -113).

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Factors of 339

Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.

Mistake 1

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Forgetting the number itself and 1 is a factor

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Children might forget to add the given number itself and 1 as a factor. The number itself and 1 are factors for every number. Always remember to include 1 and the number itself.

 

For example, in factors of 339, 1 and 339 are also factors.

Factors of 339 Examples

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

Problem 1

There are 339 seats in a theater and 3 sections. How will they divide the seats equally?

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

They will get 113 seats in each section.

Explanation

To divide the seats equally, we need to divide the total seats with the number of sections.

 

339/3 = 113

Problem 2

A rectangular garden has a length of 3 meters and the total area is 339 square meters. Find the width.

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

113 meters.

Explanation

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

 

Area = length × width

 

339 = 3 × width

 

To find the value of width, we need to shift 3 to the left side.

 

339/3 = width

 

Width = 113.

Problem 3

There are 113 teachers and 339 textbooks. How many textbooks will each teacher receive?

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

Each teacher will receive 3 textbooks.

Explanation

To find the textbooks each teacher receives, divide the total textbooks by the number of teachers.

 

339/113 = 3
