Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 132:
- If a whole number divides 132 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 132 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 132 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 132
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 132 (√132 ) are possible divisor factors of 132
- √132 = 11.4891
- Possible Divisor Factors of 132: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 132 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 132 (filtered): 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 11
- Divide 132 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 132: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 11, 12, 22, 33, 44, 66, 132
- Factor Pairs of 132: (1*132) (2*66) (3*44) (4*33) (6*22) (11*12)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
