How to Find the Factors of 237?

To find the factors of 237, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 237 without leaving any remainder.

• 237/79 = 3; therefore, 79 is a factor of 237 and 3 is also a factor of 237.
• 237/1 = 237; therefore, 1 is a factor of 237 and 237 is also a factor of 237.

Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 237 are 1, 3, 79, 237.

• Factors of 80 - The factors of 80 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80
• Factors of 90 - The factors of 90 are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90

The number 237 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 237. The first step is to divide the number 237 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 3. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.

• 237 ÷ 3 = 79

Further dividing 79 by 3 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 79 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 237 can be written as 3¹ × 79¹ where 3, 79 are prime.

Pair factors of 237 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 237. The factors of 237 in pairs are:

• 1 × 237 = (1, 237)
• 3 × 79 = (3, 79)

Negative pair factors of 237 are:

• -1 × -237 = (-1, -237)
• -3 × -79 = (-3, -79)

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