Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 216:
- If a whole number divides 216 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 216 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 216 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 216
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 216 (√216 ) are possible divisor factors of 216
- √216 = 14.6969
- Possible Divisor Factors of 216: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 216 by 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and 10
- Possible Divisor Factors of 216 (filtered): 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14
- Divide 216 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 216: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 27, 36, 54, 72, 108, 216
- Factor Pairs of 216: (1*216) (2*108) (3*72) (4*54) (6*36) (8*27) (9*24) (12*18)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
