Factoring Numbers
In math, factoring is the process used to find number sets in which the product is the same as the number you are factoring. The number sets used are usually called factors or divisors of the original number.
Let's take 112, for example. If you want to find out the divisors for the number 112, the number sets that would be applicable are as follows:
- (1, 112) given that 1 x 112 = 112
- (2, 56) given that 2 x 56 = 112
- (4, 28) given that 4 x 28 = 112
- (7, 16) given that 7 x 16 = 112
- (8, 14) given that 8 x 14 = 112
If we combine these divisors into one list and arrange them in ascending order, the list of factors would be:
- 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 56, 112
Our calculator also determines the prime factors of the entered number. For example, the prime factors of 112 consist of {2, 2, 2, 2, 7}
Factoring is an important skill in math. It is most commonly used to find the Greatest Common Number for multiple numbers. In addition, it is commonly used for prime factorization, fraction simplification, as well as solving various equations and expressions.
