Steps to find factors of 91 in pair

Example: Find factors of 91 in pair

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 91 1 x 91 = 91
7 and 13 7 x 13 = 91

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 91. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 91 would be ( -1 , -91 ) .

Introduction to factor pairs

Factor pair in mathematics is defined as all factors of a given number which when written in pair and multiplied gives the original number. Every natural number is a product of atleast one factor pair. Eg- Factors of 91 are 1 , 7 , 13 , 91. So, factors of 91 in pair are (1,91), (7,13).

How can we define factors?

In mathematics a factor is a number which divides into another without leaving any remainder. Or we can say, any two numbers that multiply to give a product are both factors of that product. It can be both positive or negative.

Properties of Factors

  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 91 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, 13, 91 are exact divisors of 91.
  • Factors of 91 are 1, 7, 13, 91. Each factor divides 91 without leaving a remainder.

Steps to find Factors of 91

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 91 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 45 (half of 91). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    91 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    91 ÷ 7 : Remainder = 0
    91 ÷ 13 : Remainder = 0
    91 ÷ 91 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 91 are 1, 7, 13, and 91

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is there any even prime factor of 91?

    No there is no even prime factor, i.e. 2, of 91.

  • What is the mean of all prime factors of 91?

    Factors of 91 are 1 , 7 , 13 , 91. Prime factors of 91 are 7 , 13. Therefore mean of prime factors of 91 is (7 + 13) / 2 = 10.00.

  • What is the mean of factors of 91?

    Factors of 91 are 1 , 7 , 13 , 91. therefore mean of factors of 91 is (1 + 7 + 13 + 91) / 4 = 28.00.

  • 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.
