Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 49:
- If a whole number divides 49 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 49 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 49 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 49
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 49 (√49 ) are possible divisor factors of 49
- √49 = 7
- Possible Divisor Factors of 49: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 49 by 2, 3, 4, and 5
- Possible Divisor Factors of 49 (filtered): 1, 7
- Divide 49 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 49: 1, 7, 49
- Factor Pairs of 49: (1*49) (7*7)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
