Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 82:
- If a whole number divides 82 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 82 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 82 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 82
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 82 (√82 ) are possible divisor factors of 82
- √82 = 9.0554
- Possible Divisor Factors of 82: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 82 by 2, 3, 4, 5, and 9
- Possible Divisor Factors of 82 (filtered): 1, 2, 7
- Divide 82 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 82: 1, 2, 41, 82
- Factor Pairs of 82: (1*82) (2*41)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
