How to Find the Factors of 264?

To find the factors of 264, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 264 without leaving any remainder.

• 264/22 = 12; therefore, 22 is a factor of 264 and 12 is also a factor of 264.
• 264/8 = 33; therefore, 8 is a factor of 264 and 33 is also a factor of 264.

Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 264 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11, 12, 22, 24, 33, 44, 66, 88, 132, 264.

• Factors of 49 - The factors of 49 are 1, 7, 49
• Factors of 63 - The factors of 63 are 1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 63
• Factors of 5 - The factors of 5 are 1, 5
• Factors of 28 - The factors of 28 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28

The number 264 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 264. The first step is to divide the number 264 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 2. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.

• 264 ÷ 2 = 132
• 132 ÷ 2 = 66
• 66 ÷ 2 = 33

Further dividing 33 by 2 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 33 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 264 can be written as 2³ × 3¹ × 11¹ where 2, 3, 11 are prime.

Pair factors of 264 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 264. The factors of 264 in pairs are:

• 1 × 264 = (1, 264)
• 2 × 132 = (2, 132)
• 3 × 88 = (3, 88)
• 4 × 66 = (4, 66)
• 6 × 44 = (6, 44)
• 8 × 33 = (8, 33)
• 11 × 24 = (11, 24)
• 12 × 22 = (12, 22)

Negative pair factors of 264 are:

• -1 × -264 = (-1, -264)
• -2 × -132 = (-2, -132)
• -3 × -88 = (-3, -88)
• -4 × -66 = (-4, -66)
• -6 × -44 = (-6, -44)
• -8 × -33 = (-8, -33)
• -11 × -24 = (-11, -24)
• -12 × -22 = (-12, -22)

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