How to Find the Factors of 268?

To find the factors of 268, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 268 without leaving any remainder.

• 268/67 = 4; therefore, 67 is a factor of 268 and 4 is also a factor of 268.
• 268/134 = 2; therefore, 134 is a factor of 268 and 2 is also a factor of 268.

Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 268 are 1, 2, 4, 67, 134, 268.

• Factors of 48 - The factors of 48 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48
• Factors of 40 - The factors of 40 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40

The number 268 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 268. The first step is to divide the number 268 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 2. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.

• 268 ÷ 2 = 134
• 134 ÷ 2 = 67

Further dividing 67 by 2 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 67 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 268 can be written as 2² × 67¹ where 2, 67 are prime.

Pair factors of 268 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 268. The factors of 268 in pairs are:

• 1 × 268 = (1, 268)
• 2 × 134 = (2, 134)
• 4 × 67 = (4, 67)

Negative pair factors of 268 are:

• -1 × -268 = (-1, -268)
• -2 × -134 = (-2, -134)
• -4 × -67 = (-4, -67)

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