Steps to find factors of 49 in pair

Example: Find factors of 49 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 49 1 x 49 = 49
7 and 7 7 x 7 = 49

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 49. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 49 would be ( -1 , -49 ) .

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 49 are 1 , 7 , 49. So, factors of 49 in pair are (1,49), (7,7).

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

  • Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number, example 1, 7, 49 are exact divisors of 49.
  • Every number other than 1 has at least two factors, namely the number itself and 1.
  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 49 is a factor of itself.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 49.

Steps to find Factors of 49

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 49 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 24 (half of 49). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    49 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    49 ÷ 7 : Remainder = 0
    49 ÷ 49 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 49 are 1, 7, and 49

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is there any even prime factor of 49?

    No there is no even prime factor, i.e. 2, of 49.

  • What is the mean of all prime factors of 49?

    Factors of 49 are 1 , 7 , 49. Prime factors of 49 are 7 , 7. Therefore mean of prime factors of 49 is (7 + 7) / 2 = 7.00.

  • What is the mean of factors of 49?

    Factors of 49 are 1 , 7 , 49. therefore mean of factors of 49 is (1 + 7 + 49) / 3 = 19.00.

  • What do you mean by proper divisors?

    A number x is said to be the proper divisor of y if it divides y completely, given that x is smaller than y.

  • What do you mean by improper divisors?

    An improper divisor of a number is the number itself apart from this any divisor of a given number is a proper divisor.
