Factors of 98 that add upto 7

Steps to find factors of 98 that add upto 7

• Find all factors.
• Then we find the sum of combinations of factors.
• Note down the combination of factors with sum as 7, and read off the answer!

Steps to find Factors of 98

• Step 1. Find all the numbers that would divide 98 without leaving any remainder. Starting with the number 1 upto 49 (half of 98). The number 1 and the number itself are always factors of the given number.
  98 ÷ 1 : Remainder = 0

  98 ÷ 2 : Remainder = 0

  98 ÷ 7 : Remainder = 0

  98 ÷ 14 : Remainder = 0

  98 ÷ 49 : Remainder = 0

  98 ÷ 98 : Remainder = 0

Hence, Factors of 98 are 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, and 98

How do you explain factors?

In mathematics, the term factor is a number or an algebraic expression that divides another number or an expression completely without leaving any remainder. A factor of a number can be positive or negative.

Properties of Factors

• Each number is a factor of itself. Eg. 98 is a factor of itself.
• 2 is the only even prime factor any number can have.
• Every factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number, example 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98 are exact divisors of 98.
• 1 is the common and smallest natural factor every number can have.
• Every number is a factor of zero (0), since 98 x 0 = 0.
