Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 102:
- If a whole number divides 102 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 102 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 102 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 102
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 102 (√102 ) are possible divisor factors of 102
- √102 = 10.0995
- Possible Divisor Factors of 102: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 102 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 102 (filtered): 1, 2, 3, 6, 7
- Divide 102 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 102: 1, 2, 3, 6, 17, 34, 51, 102
- Factor Pairs of 102: (1*102) (2*51) (3*34) (6*17)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
