How To Find out the Factors of 27
We have to find the factors of number 27. Factors are the numbers which when divided by number 27 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 27:
1) Firstly we divide given number 27 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 27:
Here,
We get factors of 27 are 1, 3, 9 and 27.
We know,
A number which has more than two factors is called composite number.
A number 27 has more than two factors.
Hence, 27 is composite number.
Also We know,
A number which is not divided by any other number is called prime number.
In factors of 27 we get 3is the prime number.
Now we find prime factorization of 27 by using LCM.
Prime factors of 27 = 3 x 3 x 3
Prime factors of 27 = 33
There are 4 factors of 27 i.e. 1, 3, 9 and 27.
When we make pairs of factors the multiplication of that two factors is the given number itself.
Pairs of factors of 27: 1 x 27, 3 x 9.
Pairs of factors of 27: (1, 27) and (3, 9)
We know Multiplication Property,
a x b = b x a
I.e. Pairs of factors of 27: (27, 1) and (9, 3) is also same.
- All factors of 27 = 1, 3, 9, 27.
- Prime factor of 27 = 3 x 3 x 3 = 33
- Sum of all factors of 27 = 1 + 3 + 9 + 27 = 40
- Pairs of factors of 27: (1, 27) and (3,9) also (27, 1) and (9, 3)
