Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 63:
- If a whole number divides 63 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 63 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 63 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 63
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 63 (√63 ) are possible divisor factors of 63
- √63 = 7.9373
- Possible Divisor Factors of 63: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 63 by 2, 3, 4, and 5
- Possible Divisor Factors of 63 (filtered): 1, 3, 7
- Divide 63 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 63: 1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 63
- Factor Pairs of 63: (1*63) (3*21) (7*9)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
