Factors of 338 by Prime Factorization
- 338 ÷ 2 = 169
Further dividing 169 by 2 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 169 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 338 can be written as 21 × 132 where 2, 13 are prime.
Factors of 338 in Pairs
Pair factors of 338 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 338. The factors of 338 in pairs are:
- 1 × 338 = (1, 338)
- 2 × 169 = (2, 169)
- 13 × 26 = (13, 26)
Negative pair factors of 338 are:
- -1 × -338 = (-1, -338)
- -2 × -169 = (-2, -169)
- -13 × -26 = (-13, -26)
NOTE: If (a, b) is a pair factor of a number then (b, a) is also a pair factor of that number.
