What are Factors of 2001?
Factors of 2001 are pairs of those numbers whose products result in 2001. These factors are either prime numbers or composite numbers.
How to Find the Factors of 2001?
To find the factors of 2001, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 2001 without leaving any remainder.
- 2001/23 = 87; therefore, 23 is a factor of 2001 and 87 is also a factor of 2001.
- 2001/69 = 29; therefore, 69 is a factor of 2001 and 29 is also a factor of 2001.

Factors of 2001 by Prime Factorization
- 2001 ÷ 3 = 667
Further dividing 667 by 3 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 667 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 2001 can be written as 31 × 231 × 291 where 3, 23, 29 are prime.
Factors of 2001 in Pairs
Pair factors of 2001 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 2001. The factors of 2001 in pairs are:
- 1 × 2001 = (1, 2001)
- 3 × 667 = (3, 667)
- 23 × 87 = (23, 87)
- 29 × 69 = (29, 69)
Negative pair factors of 2001 are:
- -1 × -2001 = (-1, -2001)
- -3 × -667 = (-3, -667)
- -23 × -87 = (-23, -87)
- -29 × -69 = (-29, -69)
NOTE: If (a, b) is a pair factor of a number then (b, a) is also a pair factor of that number.
