Steps to find Factors of 153
- Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 153 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 76 (half of 153). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
153 ÷ 153 : Remainder = 0
Hence, Factors of
153 are 1, 3, 9, 17, 51, and 153
How can we define factors?
In mathematics a factor is that number which divides into another completely, i.e. leaving 0 as a remainder. Or we can say, any numbers when multiplied together to give a product are termed as the factors of that obtained product. It can be both positive or negative.
Properties of Factors
- Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number, example 1, 3, 9, 17, 51, 153 are exact divisors of 153.
- Every number other than 1 has at least two factors, namely the number itself and 1.
- Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 153 is a factor of itself.
- 1 is the common and smallest natural factor every number can have.
- Every factor of a number is less than or equal to the number, eg. 1, 3, 9, 17, 51, 153 are all less than or equal to 153.
