2. Steps to find factors of 1845 using Prime Factorization

A prime number is a number that has exactly two factors, 1 and the number itself. Prime factorization of a number means breaking down of the number into the form of products of its prime factors.

There are two different methods that can be used for the prime factorization.

Method 1: Division Method

To find the primefactors of 1845 using the division method, follow these steps:

  • Step 1. Start dividing 1845 by the smallest prime number, i.e., 2, 3, 5, and so on. Find the smallest prime factor of the number.
  • Step 2. After finding the smallest prime factor of the number 1845, which is 3. Divide 1845 by 3 to obtain the quotient (615).
    1845 ÷ 3 = 615
  • Step 3. Repeat step 1 with the obtained quotient (615).
    615 ÷ 3 = 205
    205 ÷ 5 = 41
    41 ÷ 41 = 1

So, the prime factorization of 1845 is, 1845 = 3 x 3 x 5 x 41.

Method 2: Factor Tree Method

We can follow the same procedure using the factor tree of 1845 as shown below:

So, the prime factorization of 1845 is, 1845 = 3 x 3 x 5 x 41.

3. Find factors of 1845 in Pairs

Pair factors of a number are any two numbers which, which on multiplying together, give that number as a result. The pair factors of 1845 would be the two numbers which, when multiplied, give 1845 as the result.

The following table represents the calculation of factors of 1845 in pairs:

Factor Pair Pair Factorization
1 and 1845 1 x 1845 = 1845
3 and 615 3 x 615 = 1845
5 and 369 5 x 369 = 1845
9 and 205 9 x 205 = 1845
15 and 123 15 x 123 = 1845
41 and 45 41 x 45 = 1845

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 1845. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 1845 would be ( -1 , -1845 ) , ( -3 , -615 ) , ( -5 , -369 ) , ( -9 , -205 ) , ( -15 , -123 ) and ( -41 , -45 ) .

What are factors?

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

Properties of factors

  • Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number, example 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 41, 45, 123, 205, 369, 615, 1845 are exact divisors of 1845.
  • Every number other than 1 has at least two factors, namely the number itself and 1.
  • Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 1845 is a factor of itself.
  • 1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 1845.
