Factors Of 60 - Factorization

Factors of 60 We have all the information you will ever need about the Factors of 60. We will provide you with the definition of Factors of 60, show you how to find the Factors of 60, give you all the Factors of 60, tell you how many Factors 60 has, and supply you with all the Factor Pairs of 60 to prove that our answer is solved correctly. Factors of 60 definition The Factors of 60 are all the integers (positive and negative whole numbers) that you can evenly divide into 60. 60 divided by a Factor of 60 will equal another Factor of 60. How to find the Factors of 60 Since the Factors of 60 are all the numbers that you can evenly divide into 60, we simply need to divide 60 by all numbers up to 60 to see which ones result in an even quotient. When we did that, we found that these calculations resulted in an even quotient: 60 ÷ 1 = 6060 ÷ 2 = 3060 ÷ 3 = 2060 ÷ 4 = 1560 ÷ 5 = 1260 ÷ 6 = 1060 ÷ 10 = 660 ÷ 12 = 560 ÷ 15 = 460 ÷ 20 = 360 ÷ 30 = 260 ÷ 60 = 1 The Postive Factors of 60 are therefore all the numbers we used to divide (divisors) above to get an even number. Here is the list of all Postive Factors of 60 in numerical order: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, and 60. Factors of 60 include negative numbers. Therefore, all the Positive Factors of 60 can be converted to negative numbers. The list of Negative Factors of 60 are: -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -10, -12, -15, -20, -30, and -60. How many Factors of 60? When we counted the Factors of 60 that we listed above, we found that 60 has 12 Positive Factors and 12 Negative Factors. Thus, the total number of Factors of 60 is 24. Factor Pairs of 60 Factor Pairs of 60 are combinations of two factors that when multiplied together equal 60. Here are all the Positive Factor Pairs of 60 1 × 60 = 602 × 30 = 603 × 20 = 604 × 15 = 605 × 12 = 606 × 10 = 6010 × 6 = 6012 × 5 = 6015 × 4 = 6020 × 3 = 6030 × 2 = 6060 × 1 = 60 Like we said above, Factors of 60 include negative numbers. Minus times minus equals plus, thus you can convert the Positive Factor Pair list above by simply putting a minus in front of every factor to get all the Negative Factor Pairs of 60: -1 × -60 = 60-2 × -30 = 60-3 × -20 = 60-4 × -15 = 60-5 × -12 = 60-6 × -10 = 60-10 × -6 = 60-12 × -5 = 60-15 × -4 = 60-20 × -3 = 60-30 × -2 = 60-60 × -1 = 60 Factor Calculator Do you need the factors for a particular number? You can submit a number below to find the factors for that number with detailed explanations like we did with Factors of 60 above.
