Steps to find factors of 484 in pair

Example: Find factors of 484 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 484 1 x 484 = 484
2 and 242 2 x 242 = 484
4 and 121 4 x 121 = 484
11 and 44 11 x 44 = 484
22 and 22 22 x 22 = 484

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 484. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 484 would be ( -1 , -484 ) .

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 484 are 1 , 2 , 4 , 11 , 22 , 44 , 121 , 242 , 484. So, factors of 484 in pair are (1,484), (2,242), (4,121), (11,44), (22,22).

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. 484 is a factor of itself.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 484.
  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 484 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, 121, 242, 484 are exact divisors of 484.
  • Factors of 484 are 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44, 121, 242, 484. Each factor divides 484 without leaving a remainder.
  • Every factor of a number is less than or equal to the number, eg. 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44, 121, 242, 484 are all less than or equal to 484.

Steps to find Factors of 484

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 484 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 242 (half of 484). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    484 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    484 ÷ 2 : Remainder = 0
    484 ÷ 4 : Remainder = 0
    484 ÷ 11 : Remainder = 0
    484 ÷ 22 : Remainder = 0
    484 ÷ 44 : Remainder = 0
    484 ÷ 121 : Remainder = 0
    484 ÷ 242 : Remainder = 0
    484 ÷ 484 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 484 are 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44, 121, 242, and 484
