Steps to find factors of 44 in pair

Example: Find factors of 44 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 44 1 x 44 = 44
2 and 22 2 x 22 = 44
4 and 11 4 x 11 = 44

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 44. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 44 would be ( -1 , -44 ) .

What does factor pairs of a number mean?

Factor pairs are those factors in pair that can give original number when multiplied. Every natural number is a product of atleast one factor pair. Eg- Factors of 44 are 1 , 2 , 4 , 11 , 22 , 44. So, factors of 44 in pair are (1,44), (2,22), (4,11).

How can we define factors?

In mathematics, a factor is a number which divides into another number exactly, without leaving any remainder. A factor of a number can be positive of negative.

Properties of Factors

  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 44 is a factor of itself.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 44.
  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 44 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, 11, 22, 44 are exact divisors of 44.
  • Factors of 44 are 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44. Each factor divides 44 without leaving a remainder.
  • Every factor of a number is less than or equal to the number, eg. 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44 are all less than or equal to 44.

Steps to find Factors of 44

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 44 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 22 (half of 44). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    44 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    44 ÷ 2 : Remainder = 0
    44 ÷ 4 : Remainder = 0
    44 ÷ 11 : Remainder = 0
    44 ÷ 22 : Remainder = 0
    44 ÷ 44 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 44 are 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, and 44
