Find Factors and Multiples of Whole Numbers
Examples and questions on how to find factors and multiples of whole numbers , with detailed solutions and explanations, for grade 6 students are presented.
Factors.
Division and multiplication are related operations.
The division 6 ÷ 3 = 2 (with remainder equal to 0) may be written
as the multiplication: 6 = 2 × 3
The division 15 ÷ 3 = 5 (with remainder equal to 0) may be written
The multiplication: 10 = 2 × 5 may be written as the division: 10 ÷ 5 = 2 as the multiplication: 15 = 5 × 3 (with remainder equal to 0)
The multiplication: 18 = 6 × 3 may be written as the division: 18 ÷ 3 = 6
(with remainder equal to 0) To factor a whole number is to write it as a product of two or more whole numbers.
Examples
1) 6 = 1 × 6 ; 6 = 2 × 3 1, 2, 3 and 6 are called factors of 6.
2) 12 = 12 ×1 = 3 × 4 = 6 ×2 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12 are called factors of 12.
3) 20 = 1 × 20 = 2 × 10 = 2 × 2 × 5 = 4 × 5 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10 and 20
are called factors of 20. How to find all factors of a whole number?.
Examples
Find all factors of 30
Divide 30 by all numbers starting from 1 and select the division
that gives a remainder equal to 0 then write the factors.
30 ÷ 1 = 30 remainder 0 or 30 = 30 × 1. Hence 1 and 30 are factors
30 ÷ 2 = 15 remainder 0 or 30 = 15 × 2 . Hence both 2 and 15 are factors
30 ÷ 3 = 10 remainder 0 or 30 = 10 × 3 . Hence both 3 and 10 are factors
30 ÷ 4 = 7 remainder 2 , 4 is not a factor
30 ÷ 5 = 6 remainder 0 or 30 = 6 × 5 . Hence both 5 and 6 area factors.
We stop here because all factors greater that 5 have already been found.
The factors of 30 are: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30
Multiples
Take a whole number and multiply it by 1, 2, 3, 4, ... to obtain the multiples as follows:
5 × 1 = 5
5 × 2 = 10
5 × 3 = 15
5 × 4 = 20
The results of the multiplication of 5 by 1, 2, 3, 4, ... which are 5, 10, 15, 20, ..
are called the multiples of 5. |
