Hence, the negative pairs of 3136 would be ( -1 , -3136 ) .

Introduction to factor pairs

Factor pair in mathematics is defined as all factors of a given number which when written in pair and multiplied gives the original number. Every natural number is a product of atleast one factor pair. Eg- Factors of 3136 are 1 , 2 , 4 , 7 , 8 , 14 , 16 , 28 , 32 , 49 , 56 , 64 , 98 , 112 , 196 , 224 , 392 , 448 , 784 , 1568 , 3136. So, factors of 3136 in pair are (1,3136), (2,1568), (4,784), (7,448), (8,392), (14,224), (16,196), (28,112), (32,98), (49,64), (56,56).

How can we define factors?

In mathematics a factor is a number which divides into another without leaving any remainder. Or we can say, any two numbers that multiply to give a product are both factors of that product. It can be both positive or negative.

Properties of Factors

  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 3136 is a factor of itself.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 3136.
  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 3136 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, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 32, 49, 56, 64, 98, 112, 196, 224, 392, 448, 784, 1568, 3136 are exact divisors of 3136.
  • Factors of 3136 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 32, 49, 56, 64, 98, 112, 196, 224, 392, 448, 784, 1568, 3136. Each factor divides 3136 without leaving a remainder.
  • Every factor of a number is less than or equal to the number, eg. 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 32, 49, 56, 64, 98, 112, 196, 224, 392, 448, 784, 1568, 3136 are all less than or equal to 3136.

Steps to find Factors of 3136

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 3136 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 1568 (half of 3136). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    3136 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 2 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 4 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 7 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 8 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 14 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 16 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 28 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 32 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 49 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 56 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 64 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 98 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 112 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 196 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 224 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 392 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 448 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 784 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 1568 : Remainder = 0
    3136 ÷ 3136 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 3136 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 32, 49, 56, 64, 98, 112, 196, 224, 392, 448, 784, 1568, and 3136
