How To Find out the Factors of 203

Factors of 203

We have to find the factors of number 203. Factors are the numbers which when divided by number 203 we get the factors.

When we make pair of factors the multiplication of pair of factors gives the given number.

Steps to find Factors of 203:

1) Firstly we divide given number 203 to get remainder 0.

2) After getting answers all numbers we get are called Factors of given number.

3) 1 is the only number having factor of all numbers.

4) The given number itself is the highest factor of given number.

We find factors of 203:

Here,

We get factors of 203 are 1, 7, 29 and 203

We know,

A number which has more than two factors is called composite number.

A number 203 has more than two factors.

Hence, 203 is composite number.

Also

We know,

A number which is not divided by any other number is called prime number.

In factors of 203 we get 7 and 29 are the prime number.

Now we find prime factorization of 203 by using LCM.

Prime factors of 203 = 7 x 29

Prime factors of 203 = 7^1 x 29^1

There are 4 factors of 203 i.e. 1, 7, 29 and 203

When we make pairs of factors the multiplication of that two factors is the given number itself.

Pairs of factors of 203: 1 x 203, 7 x 29.

Pairs of factors of 203 : (1, 203), (7, 29)

We know Multiplication Property,

a x b = b x a

I.e. Pairs of factors of 203 : (1, 203), (7, 29)

All factors of 203 =

  • Prime factor of 203 = 7^1 x 29^1
  • Sum of all factors of 203 = 1 + 7 + 29 + 203 = 240

Pairs of factors of 203: (1, 203), (7, 29) and (203, 1), (29, 7) is same.
