Steps to find factors of 152 in pair

Example: Find factors of 152 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 152 1 x 152 = 152
2 and 76 2 x 76 = 152
4 and 38 4 x 38 = 152
8 and 19 8 x 19 = 152

Since the product of two negative numbers gives a positive number, the product of the negative values of both the numbers in a pair factor will also give 152. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 152 would be ( -1 , -152 ) .

How do you define factor pairs of a number?

A factor pair of a number can be defined as the combination of two factors in such a way that when multiplied together produce the number itself. Every natural number is a product of atleast one factor pair. Eg- Factors of 152 are 1 , 2 , 4 , 8 , 19 , 38 , 76 , 152. So, factors of 152 in pair are (1,152), (2,76), (4,38), (8,19).

How do you explain factors?

In mathematics, a factor is a number or also it can be an algebraic expression that divides another number or any expression completely and that too without leaving any remainder. A factor of a number can be positive or negative.

Properties of Factors

  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 152 is a factor of itself.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 152.
  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 152 x 0 = 0.
  • Every number other than 1 has at least two factors, namely the number itself and 1.
  • Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number, example 1, 2, 4, 8, 19, 38, 76, 152 are exact divisors of 152.
  • Factors of 152 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 19, 38, 76, 152. Each factor divides 152 without leaving a remainder.
  • Every factor of a number is less than or equal to the number, eg. 1, 2, 4, 8, 19, 38, 76, 152 are all less than or equal to 152.

Steps to find Factors of 152

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 152 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 76 (half of 152). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    152 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    152 ÷ 2 : Remainder = 0
    152 ÷ 4 : Remainder = 0
    152 ÷ 8 : Remainder = 0
    152 ÷ 19 : Remainder = 0
    152 ÷ 38 : Remainder = 0
    152 ÷ 76 : Remainder = 0
    152 ÷ 152 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 152 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 19, 38, 76, and 152
