Step-by-step solution to find the factors and factor pairs of 99:
- If a whole number divides 99 evenly (remainder = 0), then it is a factor of 99 (divisor factor), and the corresponding quotient is also a factor of 99 (quotient factor)
- Divisor factors and quotient factors form a complete list of the factors and factor pairs of 99
- With the exception of 0, all whole numbers less than or equal to the square root of 99 (√99 ) are possible divisor factors of 99
- √99 = 9.9499
- Possible Divisor Factors of 99: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
- Filter list of possible divisor factors by testing divisibility of 99 by 2, 3, 4, 5, and 9
- Possible Divisor Factors of 99 (filtered): 1, 3, 7, 9
- Divide 99 by the possible divisor factors in the filtered list
- Factors of 99: 1, 3, 9, 11, 33, 99
- Factor Pairs of 99: (1*99) (3*33) (9*11)
- Note: the first number in each factor pair is a divisor factor and the second number is a corresponding quotient factor
