Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 112:
- If a whole number divides 112 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 112 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 112 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 112
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 112 (√112 ) are possible divisor factors of 112
- √112 = 10.583
- Possible Divisor Factors of 112: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 112 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 112 (filtered): 1, 2, 4, 7, 8
- Divide 112 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 112: 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 56, 112
- Factor Pairs of 112: (1*112) (2*56) (4*28) (7*16) (8*14)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
