Steps to find factors of 297 in pair

Example: Find factors of 297 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 297 1 x 297 = 297
3 and 99 3 x 99 = 297
9 and 33 9 x 33 = 297
11 and 27 11 x 27 = 297

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 297. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 297 would be ( -1 , -297 ) .

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 297 are 1 , 3 , 9 , 11 , 27 , 33 , 99 , 297. So, factors of 297 in pair are (1,297), (3,99), (9,33), (11,27).

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

  • Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number, example 1, 3, 9, 11, 27, 33, 99, 297 are exact divisors of 297.
  • Every number other than 1 has at least two factors, namely the number itself and 1.
  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 297 is a factor of itself.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 297.

Steps to find Factors of 297

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 297 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 148 (half of 297). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    297 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    297 ÷ 3 : Remainder = 0
    297 ÷ 9 : Remainder = 0
    297 ÷ 11 : Remainder = 0
    297 ÷ 27 : Remainder = 0
    297 ÷ 33 : Remainder = 0
    297 ÷ 99 : Remainder = 0
    297 ÷ 297 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 297 are 1, 3, 9, 11, 27, 33, 99, and 297
