Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 89:
- If a whole number divides 89 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 89 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 89 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 89
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 89 (√89 ) are possible divisor factors of 89
- √89 = 9.434
- Possible Divisor Factors of 89: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 89 by 2, 3, 4, 5, and 9
- Possible Divisor Factors of 89 (filtered): 1, 7
- Divide 89 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 89: 1, 89
- Factor Pairs of 89: (1*89)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
