How to Find the Factors of 226?

To find the factors of 226, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 226 without leaving any remainder.

• 226/113 = 2; therefore, 113 is a factor of 226 and 2 is also a factor of 226.
• 226/226 = 1; therefore, 226 is a factor of 226 and 1 is also a factor of 226.

Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 226 are 1, 2, 113, 226.

• Factors of 17 - The factors of 17 are 1, 17
• Factors of 40 - The factors of 40 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40

The number 226 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 226. The first step is to divide the number 226 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 2. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.

• 226 ÷ 2 = 113

Further dividing 113 by 2 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 113 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 226 can be written as 2¹ × 113¹ where 2, 113 are prime.

Pair factors of 226 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 226. The factors of 226 in pairs are:

• 1 × 226 = (1, 226)
• 2 × 113 = (2, 113)

Negative pair factors of 226 are:

• -1 × -226 = (-1, -226)
• -2 × -113 = (-2, -113)

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