How to find factors of a number

1. Steps to find factors of 3000 using Division Method

Find all the numbers which can divide 3000 without leaving any remainder, starting from number 1 upto 1500 (half of 3000). The number 1 and the number (3000) itself are always factors of the given number (3000).
Note down all such number. All of those numbers are factors of 3000.

2. Steps to find factors of 3000 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 3000 using the division method, follow these steps:

Step 1. Start dividing 3000 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 3000, which is 2. Divide 3000 by 2 to obtain the quotient (1500).
3000 ÷ 2 = 1500
Step 3. Repeat step 1 with the obtained quotient (1500).
1500 ÷ 2 = 750

750 ÷ 2 = 375

375 ÷ 3 = 125

125 ÷ 5 = 25

25 ÷ 5 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1

So, the prime factorization of 3000 is, 3000 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 5.

Method 2: Factor Tree Method

We can follow the same procedure using the factor tree of 3000 as shown below:

So, the prime factorization of 3000 is, 3000 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 5.

3. Find factors of 3000 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 3000 would be the two numbers which, when multiplied, give 3000 as the result.

The following table represents the calculation of factors of 3000 in pairs:

Factor Pair	Pair Factorization
1 and 3000	1 x 3000 = 3000
2 and 1500	2 x 1500 = 3000
3 and 1000	3 x 1000 = 3000
4 and 750	4 x 750 = 3000
5 and 600	5 x 600 = 3000
6 and 500	6 x 500 = 3000
8 and 375	8 x 375 = 3000
10 and 300	10 x 300 = 3000
12 and 250	12 x 250 = 3000
15 and 200	15 x 200 = 3000
20 and 150	20 x 150 = 3000
24 and 125	24 x 125 = 3000
25 and 120	25 x 120 = 3000
30 and 100	30 x 100 = 3000
40 and 75	40 x 75 = 3000
50 and 60	50 x 60 = 3000

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 3000. They are called negative pair factors.

Hence, the negative pairs of 3000 would be ( -1 , -3000 ) , ( -2 , -1500 ) , ( -3 , -1000 ) , ( -4 , -750 ) , ( -5 , -600 ) , ( -6 , -500 ) , ( -8 , -375 ) , ( -10 , -300 ) , ( -12 , -250 ) , ( -15 , -200 ) , ( -20 , -150 ) , ( -24 , -125 ) , ( -25 , -120 ) , ( -30 , -100 ) , ( -40 , -75 ) and ( -50 , -60 ) .

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

Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 3000 is a factor of itself.
1 is a factor of every number. Eg. 1 is a factor of 3000.
Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 3000 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, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 75, 100, 120, 125, 150, 200, 250, 300, 375, 500, 600, 750, 1000, 1500, 3000 are exact divisors of 3000.
Factors of 3000 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 75, 100, 120, 125, 150, 200, 250, 300, 375, 500, 600, 750, 1000, 1500, 3000. Each factor divides 3000 without leaving a remainder.
Every factor of a number is less than or equal to the number, eg. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 75, 100, 120, 125, 150, 200, 250, 300, 375, 500, 600, 750, 1000, 1500, 3000 are all less than or equal to 3000.
