Steps to find factors of 51 that add upto 20

Example: Find factors of 51 that add upto 20

  • Sum of 3 and 17 : 3 + 17 = 20

Hence, factors of 51 that add upto 20 are 3 and 17.

Steps to find Factors of 51

  • Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 51 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 25 (half of 51). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
    51 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0
    51 ÷ 3 : Remainder = 0
    51 ÷ 17 : Remainder = 0
    51 ÷ 51 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 51 are 1, 3, 17, and 51

What is the definition of factors?

When certain numbers are multiplied together they produce a product, in that case the numbers used are defined as the factors of the product obtained. A factor of a number can be positive or negative.

Properties of Factors

  • Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 51 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, 3, 17, 51 are exact divisors of 51.
  • Factors of 51 are 1, 3, 17, 51. Each factor divides 51 without leaving a remainder.
  • Every number consists of one common and smallest factor and that is number 1.
