Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 148:
- If a whole number divides 148 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 148 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 148 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 148
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 148 (√148 ) are possible divisor factors of 148
- √148 = 12.1655
- Possible Divisor Factors of 148: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 148 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 148 (filtered): 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 11
- Divide 148 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 148: 1, 2, 4, 37, 74, 148
- Factor Pairs of 148: (1*148) (2*74) (4*37)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
