Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 34:
- If a whole number divides 34 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 34 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 34 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 34
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 34 (√34 ) are possible divisor factors of 34
- √34 = 5.831
- Possible Divisor Factors of 34: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 34 by 2, 3, 4, and 5
- Possible Divisor Factors of 34 (filtered): 1, 2
- Divide 34 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 34: 1, 2, 17, 34
- Factor Pairs of 34: (1*34) (2*17)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
