Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 104:
- If a whole number divides 104 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 104 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 104 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 104
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 104 (√104 ) are possible divisor factors of 104
- √104 = 10.198
- Possible Divisor Factors of 104: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 104 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 104 (filtered): 1, 2, 4, 7, 8
- Divide 104 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 104: 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 26, 52, 104
- Factor Pairs of 104: (1*104) (2*52) (4*26) (8*13)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
