Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 116:
- If a whole number divides 116 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 116 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 116 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 116
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 116 (√116 ) are possible divisor factors of 116
- √116 = 10.7703
- Possible Divisor Factors of 116: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 116 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 116 (filtered): 1, 2, 4, 7, 8
- Divide 116 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 116: 1, 2, 4, 29, 58, 116
- Factor Pairs of 116: (1*116) (2*58) (4*29)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
