Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 44:
- If a whole number divides 44 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 44 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 44 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 44
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 44 (√44 ) are possible divisor factors of 44
- √44 = 6.6332
- Possible Divisor Factors of 44: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 44 by 2, 3, 4, and 5
- Possible Divisor Factors of 44 (filtered): 1, 2, 4
- Divide 44 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 44: 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44
- Factor Pairs of 44: (1*44) (2*22) (4*11)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
