What are the Factors of 772?

The numbers that divide 772 evenly are known as factors of 772.

 

A factor of 772 is a number that divides the number without remainder.

 

The factors of 772 are 1, 2, 4, 193, 386, and 772.

 

Negative factors of 772: -1, -2, -4, -193, -386, and -772.

 

Prime factors of 772: 2 and 193.

 

Prime factorization of 772: 2² × 193.

 

The sum of factors of 772: 1 + 2 + 4 + 193 + 386 + 772 = 1358

How to Find Factors of 772?

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

 

  • Finding factors using multiplication
     
  • Finding factors using 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 772. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 772 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 772 by 1, 772 × 1 = 772.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 772 after multiplying

2 × 386 = 772
4 × 193 = 772

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 772 are: (1, 772), (2, 386), and (4, 193). All these factor pairs result in 772.

 

For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Division Method

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

 

Step 1: Divide 772 by 1, 772 ÷ 1 = 772.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 772 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.
772 ÷ 1 = 772
772 ÷ 2 = 386
772 ÷ 4 = 193
 

Therefore, the factors of 772 are: 1, 2, 4, 193, 386, 772.

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 772 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

772 ÷ 2 = 386
386 ÷ 2 = 193
 

193 is a prime number and cannot be divided further.

 

The prime factors of 772 are 2 and 193.

 

The prime factorization of 772 is: 2² × 193.

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, 772 is divided by 2 to get 386.

 

Step 2: Now divide 386 by 2 to get 193. Here, 193 is a prime number and cannot be divided further.

 

So, the prime factorization of 772 is: 2² × 193.

 

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 772: (1, 772), (2, 386), and (4, 193).

 

Negative factor pairs of 772: (-1, -772), (-2, -386), and (-4, -193).

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 the factors for every number. Always remember to include 1 and the number itself.

 

For example, in factors of 772, 1 and 772 are also factors.

Problem 1

There are 2 teams and 772 tickets. How will they divide them equally?

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

They will get 386 tickets each.

Explanation

To divide the tickets equally, we need to divide the total tickets by the number of teams.
772/2 = 386

Problem 2

A rectangular garden has a length of 4 meters and a total area of 772 square meters. Find the width.

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

193 meters.

Explanation

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

Area = length × width

772 = 4 × width

To find the value of width, we need to shift 4 to the left side.

772/4 = width

Width = 193.
