Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 3:
- If a whole number divides 3 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 3 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 3 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 3
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 3 (√3 ) are possible divisor factors of 3
- √3 = 1.7321
- Possible Divisor Factor of 3: 1
- Divide 3 by the possible divisor factor
- Factors of 3: 1, 3
- Factor Pairs of 3: (1*3)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
