Factors of 22 in pair

Steps to find factors of 22 in pair

• Find all the numbers that would divide 22 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 11 (half of 22). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
• Pair the factors so that their product is 22, and read off the answer!

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 22. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 22 would be ( -1 , -22 ) .

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 22 are 1 , 2 , 11 , 22. So, factors of 22 in pair are (1,22), (2,11).

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. 22 is a factor of itself.
• 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, 11, 22 are exact divisors of 22.
• 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 22.
• Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 22 x 0 = 0.

Steps to find Factors of 22

• Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 22 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 11 (half of 22). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
  22 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0

  22 ÷ 2 : Remainder = 0

  22 ÷ 11 : Remainder = 0

  22 ÷ 22 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 22 are 1, 2, 11, and 22
