Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 212:
- If a whole number divides 212 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 212 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 212 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 212
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 212 (√212 ) are possible divisor factors of 212
- √212 = 14.5602
- Possible Divisor Factors of 212: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 212 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 212 (filtered): 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 11, 13, 14
- Divide 212 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 212: 1, 2, 4, 53, 106, 212
- Factor Pairs of 212: (1*212) (2*106) (4*53)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
