Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 266:
- If a whole number divides 266 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 266 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 266 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 266
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 266 (√266 ) are possible divisor factors of 266
- √266 = 16.3095
- Possible Divisor Factors of 266: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 266 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 266 (filtered): 1, 2, 7, 11, 13, 14
- Divide 266 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 266: 1, 2, 7, 14, 19, 38, 133, 266
- Factor Pairs of 266: (1*266) (2*133) (7*38) (14*19)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
