How to Find the Factors of 212?

To find the factors of 212, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 212 without leaving any remainder.

• 212/53 = 4; therefore, 53 is a factor of 212 and 4 is also a factor of 212.
• 212/106 = 2; therefore, 106 is a factor of 212 and 2 is also a factor of 212.

Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 212 are 1, 2, 4, 53, 106, 212.

The number 212 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 212. The first step is to divide the number 212 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 2. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.

• 212 ÷ 2 = 106
• 106 ÷ 2 = 53

Further dividing 53 by 2 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 53 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 212 can be written as 2² × 53¹ where 2, 53 are prime.

Pair factors of 212 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 212. The factors of 212 in pairs are:

• 1 × 212 = (1, 212)
• 2 × 106 = (2, 106)
• 4 × 53 = (4, 53)

Negative pair factors of 212 are:

• -1 × -212 = (-1, -212)
• -2 × -106 = (-2, -106)
• -4 × -53 = (-4, -53)

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