Steps to find factors of 215 in pair

Example: Find factors of 215 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 215 1 x 215 = 215
5 and 43 5 x 43 = 215

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 215. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 215 would be ( -1 , -215 ) .

Definition of factor pairs?

In mathematics, factor pair are often given as pair of numbers which when multiplied together give the original number. Every natural number is a product of atleast one factor pair. Eg- Factors of 215 are 1 , 5 , 43 , 215. So, factors of 215 in pair are (1,215), (5,43).

What are factors?

In mathematics, a factor is that number which divides into another number exactly, without leaving a remainder. A factor of a number can be positive or negative.

Properties of Factors

  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 215 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, 5, 43, 215 are exact divisors of 215.
  • Factors of 215 are 1, 5, 43, 215. Each factor divides 215 without leaving a remainder.

Steps to find Factors of 215

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 215 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 107 (half of 215). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    215 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    215 ÷ 5 : Remainder = 0
    215 ÷ 43 : Remainder = 0
    215 ÷ 215 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 215 are 1, 5, 43, and 215
