Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 65:
- If a whole number divides 65 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 65 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 65 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 65
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 65 (√65 ) are possible divisor factors of 65
- √65 = 8.0623
- Possible Divisor Factors of 65: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 65 by 2, 3, 4, and 5
- Possible Divisor Factors of 65 (filtered): 1, 5, 7
- Divide 65 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 65: 1, 5, 13, 65
- Factor Pairs of 65: (1*65) (5*13)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
