What are the Factors of 110?
Factors of 110 are the numbers which when multiplied in pairs give the product as 110. The factors of 110 are those numbers which divide it without leaving any remainder. So, when you multiply any two whole numbers with each other and get 110 as the answer, you can say that both these numbers are the factors of 110.
Observe the following numbers. You get 110 as the product after multiplying the given numbers.
1 × 110 = 110
2 × 55 = 110
5 × 22 = 110
10 × 11 = 110
11 × 10 = 110
22 × 5 = 110
55 × 2 = 110
110 × 1 = 110
So, we can say that "The factors of 110 are all the integers that 110 can be divided into."
How to Calculate the Factors of 110?
Let's calculate the factors of 110, starting with the smallest whole number, i.e., 1.
Divide 110 with this number. Is the remainder 0?
Yes! So, we get
110/1 = 110
110 × 1 = 110
The next whole number is 2
Now, divide 110 with this number.
110/2 = 55
2 × 55 = 110
Proceeding in a similar manner we get,
110 = 1 × 110 = 2 × 55 = 5 × 22 = 10 ×11
Finally, we get all the factors of 110 as :
Hence, the factors of 110 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 22, 55 and 110.

Factors of 110 by Prime Factorization
"Prime factorization means to express a composite number as the product of its prime factors". To get the prime factorization of 110, we divide it by its smallest prime factor which is 2
110/2 = 55
Now, 55 is divided by its smallest prime factor and the quotient is obtained. This process goes on till we get the quotient as 1.
The prime factorization of 110 is shown below:
Hence, the prime factors of 110 are 2, 5, and 11.
Factors of 110 in Pairs
The pairs of numbers, which when multiplied give 110, are known as the factor pairs of 110. Observe the following factors of 110 in pairs.
Product form of 110 | Pair factors |
1 × 110 = 110 | (1, 110) |
2 × 55 = 110 | (2, 55) |
5 × 22 = 110 | (5, 22) |
10 × 11 = 110 | (10, 11) |
As seen in the table given above, after 10 × 11, there are no new factors. So, it is enough to find factors till (10,11).
If we consider negative integers, then both the numbers in the pair factors will be negative. Since ( - ve × - ve ) = +ve, we can list the factor pairs of 110 as (-1, -110); (-2, -55); (-5, -22), and (-10, -11).
Important Notes:
- As 110 ends with the digit 0, it will have 5 and 10 as its factors. This holds true for all the numbers that end with 0
- 110 is a non-perfect square number. Thus, it will have even number of factors. This property holds true for every non-perfect square number.
Factors of 110 Solved Examples
-
Example 1: Peter bought two rectangular rugs which had different dimensions, but had the same area of 110 inches². He wanted his friend Andrew to guess the dimensions of the rugs. Could you help him with the two probable pairs other than (1,110) and (55, 2), that would result in the given area?
Solution:
Andrew told that (5, 22) and (10,11) were the two factor pairs of 110 which could be the dimensions of the two rugs. Let us see how he explained it.
Since Area of a rectangle = length × breadth
For the first rug,Area = 22 × 5 = 110 in²
For the second rug,
Area =10 × 11= 110 in²
Hence, the two factor pairs are (22, 5) and (10, 11).

Example 2: Robert's teacher told him that -55 is one of the factors of 110. Can you help him find the other factor?
Solution:
110 = Factor 1 × Factor 2
Hence, 110 =(-55) × Factor 2
Factor 2 = 110/(-55) =(-2)
Hence, the other factor is -2
