Steps to find factors of 539 in pair

Example: Find factors of 539 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 539 1 x 539 = 539
7 and 77 7 x 77 = 539
11 and 49 11 x 49 = 539

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 539. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 539 would be ( -1 , -539 ) .

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 539 are 1 , 7 , 11 , 49 , 77 , 539. So, factors of 539 in pair are (1,539), (7,77), (11,49).

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 number is a factor of zero (0), since 539 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, 7, 11, 49, 77, 539 are exact divisors of 539.
  • Factors of 539 are 1, 7, 11, 49, 77, 539. Each factor divides 539 without leaving a remainder.

Steps to find Factors of 539

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 539 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 269 (half of 539). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    539 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    539 ÷ 7 : Remainder = 0
    539 ÷ 11 : Remainder = 0
    539 ÷ 49 : Remainder = 0
    539 ÷ 77 : Remainder = 0
    539 ÷ 539 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 539 are 1, 7, 11, 49, 77, and 539
