Steps to find factors of 243 in pair

Example: Find factors of 243 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 243 1 x 243 = 243
3 and 81 3 x 81 = 243
9 and 27 9 x 27 = 243

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 243. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 243 would be ( -1 , -243 ) .

What does factor pairs in mathematics mean?

In mathematics, factor pair of a number are all those possible combination which when multiplied together give the original number in return. Every natural number is a product of atleast one factor pair. Eg- Factors of 243 are 1 , 3 , 9 , 27 , 81 , 243. So, factors of 243 in pair are (1,243), (3,81), (9,27).

What is the definition of factors?

In mathematics, factors are number, algebraic expressions which when multiplied together produce desired product. A factor of a number can be positive or negative.

Properties of Factors

  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 243 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, 3, 9, 27, 81, 243 are exact divisors of 243.
  • Factors of 243 are 1, 3, 9, 27, 81, 243. Each factor divides 243 without leaving a remainder.

Steps to find Factors of 243

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 243 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 121 (half of 243). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    243 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    243 ÷ 3 : Remainder = 0
    243 ÷ 9 : Remainder = 0
    243 ÷ 27 : Remainder = 0
    243 ÷ 81 : Remainder = 0
    243 ÷ 243 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 243 are 1, 3, 9, 27, 81, and 243
