Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 37:
- If a whole number divides 37 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 37 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 37 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 37
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 37 (√37 ) are possible divisor factors of 37
- √37 = 6.0828
- Possible Divisor Factors of 37: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 37 by 2, 3, 4, and 5
- Possible Divisor Factors of 37 (filtered): 1
- Divide 37 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 37: 1, 37
- Factor Pairs of 37: (1*37)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
