Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 14:
- If a whole number divides 14 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 14 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 14 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 14
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 14 (√14 ) are possible divisor factors of 14
- √14 = 3.7417
- Possible Divisor Factors of 14: 1, 2, 3
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 14 by 2 and 3
- Possible Divisor Factors of 14 (filtered): 1, 2
- Divide 14 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 14: 1, 2, 7, 14
- Factor Pairs of 14: (1*14) (2*7)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
