Steps to find factors of 230 in pair

Example: Find factors of 230 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 230 1 x 230 = 230
2 and 115 2 x 115 = 230
5 and 46 5 x 46 = 230
10 and 23 10 x 23 = 230

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 230. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 230 would be ( -1 , -230 ) .

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 230 are 1 , 2 , 5 , 10 , 23 , 46 , 115 , 230. So, factors of 230 in pair are (1,230), (2,115), (5,46), (10,23).

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

  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 230 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, 5, 10, 23, 46, 115, 230 are exact divisors of 230.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 230.
  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 230 x 0 = 0.

Steps to find Factors of 230

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 230 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 115 (half of 230). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    230 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    230 ÷ 2 : Remainder = 0
    230 ÷ 5 : Remainder = 0
    230 ÷ 10 : Remainder = 0
    230 ÷ 23 : Remainder = 0
    230 ÷ 46 : Remainder = 0
    230 ÷ 115 : Remainder = 0
    230 ÷ 230 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 230 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 23, 46, 115, and 230
