Steps to find factors of 385 in pair

Example: Find factors of 385 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 385 1 x 385 = 385
5 and 77 5 x 77 = 385
7 and 55 7 x 55 = 385
11 and 35 11 x 35 = 385

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 385. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 385 would be ( -1 , -385 ) .

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 385 are 1 , 5 , 7 , 11 , 35 , 55 , 77 , 385. So, factors of 385 in pair are (1,385), (5,77), (7,55), (11,35).

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, 5, 7, 11, 35, 55, 77, 385 are exact divisors of 385.
  • Every number other than 1 has at least two factors, namely the number itself and 1.
  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 385 is a factor of itself.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 385.

Steps to find Factors of 385

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 385 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 192 (half of 385). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    385 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    385 ÷ 5 : Remainder = 0
    385 ÷ 7 : Remainder = 0
    385 ÷ 11 : Remainder = 0
    385 ÷ 35 : Remainder = 0
    385 ÷ 55 : Remainder = 0
    385 ÷ 77 : Remainder = 0
    385 ÷ 385 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 385 are 1, 5, 7, 11, 35, 55, 77, and 385
