Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 128:
- If a whole number divides 128 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 128 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 128 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 128
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 128 (√128 ) are possible divisor factors of 128
- √128 = 11.3137
- Possible Divisor Factors of 128: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 128 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 128 (filtered): 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 11
- Divide 128 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 128: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128
- Factor Pairs of 128: (1*128) (2*64) (4*32) (8*16)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
