Steps to find factors of 338 in pair

Example: Find factors of 338 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 338 1 x 338 = 338
2 and 169 2 x 169 = 338
13 and 26 13 x 26 = 338

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 338. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 338 would be ( -1 , -338 ) .

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 338 are 1 , 2 , 13 , 26 , 169 , 338. So, factors of 338 in pair are (1,338), (2,169), (13,26).

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

  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 338 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, 13, 26, 169, 338 are exact divisors of 338.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 338.
  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 338 x 0 = 0.

Steps to find Factors of 338

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 338 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 169 (half of 338). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    338 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    338 ÷ 2 : Remainder = 0
    338 ÷ 13 : Remainder = 0
    338 ÷ 26 : Remainder = 0
    338 ÷ 169 : Remainder = 0
    338 ÷ 338 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 338 are 1, 2, 13, 26, 169, and 338
