Steps to find factors of 345 in pair

Example: Find factors of 345 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 345 1 x 345 = 345
3 and 115 3 x 115 = 345
5 and 69 5 x 69 = 345
15 and 23 15 x 23 = 345

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 345. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 345 would be ( -1 , -345 ) .

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 345 are 1 , 3 , 5 , 15 , 23 , 69 , 115 , 345. So, factors of 345 in pair are (1,345), (3,115), (5,69), (15,23).

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

  • Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number, example 1, 3, 5, 15, 23, 69, 115, 345 are exact divisors of 345.
  • Every number other than 1 has at least two factors, namely the number itself and 1.
  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 345 is a factor of itself.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 345.

Steps to find Factors of 345

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 345 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 172 (half of 345). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    345 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    345 ÷ 3 : Remainder = 0
    345 ÷ 5 : Remainder = 0
    345 ÷ 15 : Remainder = 0
    345 ÷ 23 : Remainder = 0
    345 ÷ 69 : Remainder = 0
    345 ÷ 115 : Remainder = 0
    345 ÷ 345 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 345 are 1, 3, 5, 15, 23, 69, 115, and 345
