Finding Factors Using Multiplication

To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 1664. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 1664 is the multiplication method. Step 1: Multiply 1664 by 1, 1664 × 1 = 1664. Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 1664 after multiplying 2 × 832 = 1664 4 × 416 = 1664 8 × 208 = 1664 16 × 104 = 1664 32 × 52 = 1664 Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 1664 are: (1, 1664), (2, 832), (4, 416), (8, 208), (16, 104), (32, 52). All these factor pairs result in 1664. For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Finding Factors Using Division Method

Dividing the given numbers 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 a simple division method - Step 1: Divide 1664 by 1, 1664 ÷ 1 = 1664. Step 2: Continue dividing 1664 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0. 1664 ÷ 1 = 1664 1664 ÷ 2 = 832 1664 ÷ 4 = 416 1664 ÷ 8 = 208 1664 ÷ 16 = 104 1664 ÷ 32 = 52 Therefore, the factors of 1664 are: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 52, 104, 208, 416, 832, and 1664.

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 1664 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1. 1664 ÷ 2 = 832 832 ÷ 2 = 416 416 ÷ 2 = 208 208 ÷ 2 = 104 104 ÷ 2 = 52 52 ÷ 2 = 26 26 ÷ 2 = 13 13 ÷ 13 = 1 The prime factors of 1664 are 2 and 13. The prime factorization of 1664 is: 2^6 × 13.

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, 1664 is divided by 2 to get 832. Step 2: Now divide 832 by 2 to get 416. Step 3: Then divide 416 by 2 to get 208. Step 4: Divide 208 by 2 to get 104. Step 5: Divide 104 by 2 to get 52. Step 6: Divide 52 by 2 to get 26. Step 7: Divide 26 by 2 to get 13. Here, 13 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 1664 is: 2^6 × 13. 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 1664: (1, 1664), (2, 832), (4, 416), (8, 208), (16, 104), and (32, 52). Negative factor pairs of 1664: (-1, -1664), (-2, -832), (-4, -416), (-8, -208), (-16, -104), and (-32, -52).

Problem 2

A rectangular garden has a length of 52 meters and a total area of 1664 square meters. Find the width.

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

32 meters.

Explanation

To find the width of the garden, we use the formula, Area = length × width 1664 = 52 × width To find the value of width, we need to shift 52 to the left side. 1664/52 = width Width = 32.
