How to Find the Factors of 185?

To find the factors of 185, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 185 without leaving any remainder.

• 185/5 = 37; therefore, 5 is a factor of 185 and 37 is also a factor of 185.
• 185/185 = 1; therefore, 185 is a factor of 185 and 1 is also a factor of 185.

Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 185 are 1, 5, 37, 185.

• Factors of 34 - The factors of 34 are 1, 2, 17, 34
• Factors of 19 - The factors of 19 are 1, 19
• Factors of 98 - The factors of 98 are 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98

The number 185 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 185. The first step is to divide the number 185 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 5. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.

• 185 ÷ 5 = 37

Further dividing 37 by 5 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 37 by the next smallest prime factor. We stop ultimately if the next prime factor doesn't exist or when we can't divide any further.

So, the prime factorization of 185 can be written as 5¹ × 37¹ where 5, 37 are prime.

Pair factors of 185 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 185. The factors of 185 in pairs are:

• 1 × 185 = (1, 185)
• 5 × 37 = (5, 37)

Negative pair factors of 185 are:

• -1 × -185 = (-1, -185)
• -5 × -37 = (-5, -37)

NOTE: If (a, b) is a pair factor of a number then (b, a) is also a pair factor of that number.
