What are Factors of 345?
Factors of 345 are pairs of those numbers whose products result in 345. These factors are either prime numbers or composite numbers.
How to Find the Factors of 345?
To find the factors of 345, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 345 without leaving any remainder.
- 345/345 = 1; therefore, 345 is a factor of 345.
- 345/69 = 5; therefore, 69 is a factor of 345.

Factors of 345 by Prime Factorization
- 345 ÷ 3 = 115
Further dividing 115 by 3 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 115 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 345 can be written as 31 × 51 × 231 where 3, 5, 23 are prime.
Factors of 345 in Pairs
Pair factors of 345 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 345. The factors of 345 in pairs are:
- 1 × 345 = (1, 345)
- 3 × 115 = (3, 115)
- 5 × 69 = (5, 69)
- 15 × 23 = (15, 23)
Negative pair factors of 345 are:
- -1 × -345 = (-1, -345)
- -3 × -115 = (-3, -115)
- -5 × -69 = (-5, -69)
- -15 × -23 = (-15, -23)
NOTE: If (a, b) is a pair factor of a number then (b, a) is also a pair factor of that number.
