What are Factors of 368?
Factors of 368 are pairs of those numbers whose products result in 368. These factors are either prime numbers or composite numbers.
How to Find the Factors of 368?
To find the factors of 368, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 368 without leaving any remainder.
- 368/23 = 16; therefore, 23 is a factor of 368 and 16 is also a factor of 368.
- 368/4 = 92; therefore, 4 is a factor of 368 and 92 is also a factor of 368.

Factors of 368 by Prime Factorization
- 368 ÷ 2 = 184
- 184 ÷ 2 = 92
- 92 ÷ 2 = 46
- 46 ÷ 2 = 23
Further dividing 23 by 2 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 23 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 368 can be written as 24 × 231 where 2, 23 are prime.
Factors of 368 in Pairs
Pair factors of 368 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 368. The factors of 368 in pairs are:
- 1 × 368 = (1, 368)
- 2 × 184 = (2, 184)
- 4 × 92 = (4, 92)
- 8 × 46 = (8, 46)
- 16 × 23 = (16, 23)
Negative pair factors of 368 are:
- -1 × -368 = (-1, -368)
- -2 × -184 = (-2, -184)
- -4 × -92 = (-4, -92)
- -8 × -46 = (-8, -46)
- -16 × -23 = (-16, -23)
NOTE: If (a, b) is a pair factor of a number then (b, a) is also a pair factor of that number.
Factors of 368 Solved Examples

Example 1: How many factors are there for 368?
Solution:
The factors of 368 are too many, therefore if we can find the prime factorization of 368, then the total number of factors can be calculated using the formula shown below.
If the prime factorization of the number is ax × by × cz where a, b, c are prime, then the total number of factors can be given by (x + 1)(y + 1)(z + 1).
Prime Factorization of 368 = 24 × 231
Therefore, the total number of factors are (4 + 1) × (1 + 1) = 5 × 2 = 10 -
Example 2: Find the LCM and Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 368 and 192.
Solution:
The factors of 368 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 23, 46, 92, 184, 368 and factors of 192 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 96, 192.
Therefore, the LCM of 368 and 192 is 4416 and Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 368 and 192 is 16. -
Example 3: Find if 4, 8, 14, 16, 92 and 368 are factors of 368.
Solution:
When we divide 368 by 14 it leaves a remainder. Therefore, the number 14 is not a factor of 368. All numbers except 14 are factors of 368.
-
Example 4: Find the product of all the prime factors of 368.
Solution:
Since, the prime factors of 368 are 2, 23. Therefore, the product of prime factors = 2 × 23 = 46.
