Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 140:
- If a whole number divides 140 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 140 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 140 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 140
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 140 (√140 ) are possible divisor factors of 140
- √140 = 11.8322
- Possible Divisor Factors of 140: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 140 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 140 (filtered): 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11
- Divide 140 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 140: 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 10, 14, 20, 28, 35, 70, 140
- Factor Pairs of 140: (1*140) (2*70) (4*35) (5*28) (7*20) (10*14)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
