What are Factors of 405?
Factors of 405 are pairs of those numbers whose products result in 405. These factors are either prime numbers or composite numbers.
How to Find the Factors of 405?
To find the factors of 405, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 405 without leaving any remainder.
- 405/5 = 81; therefore, 5 is a factor of 405 and 81 is also a factor of 405.
- 405/27 = 15; therefore, 27 is a factor of 405 and 15 is also a factor of 405.

Factors of 405 by Prime Factorization
- 405 ÷ 3 = 135
- 135 ÷ 3 = 45
- 45 ÷ 3 = 15
- 15 ÷ 3 = 5
Further dividing 5 by 3 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 5 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 405 can be written as 34 × 51 where 3, 5 are prime.
Factors of 405 in Pairs
Pair factors of 405 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 405. The factors of 405 in pairs are:
- 1 × 405 = (1, 405)
- 3 × 135 = (3, 135)
- 5 × 81 = (5, 81)
- 9 × 45 = (9, 45)
- 15 × 27 = (15, 27)
Negative pair factors of 405 are:
- -1 × -405 = (-1, -405)
- -3 × -135 = (-3, -135)
- -5 × -81 = (-5, -81)
- -9 × -45 = (-9, -45)
- -15 × -27 = (-15, -27)
NOTE: If (a, b) is a pair factor of a number then (b, a) is also a pair factor of that number.
Factors of 405 Solved Examples

Example 1: How many factors are there for 405?
Solution:
The factors of 405 are too many, therefore if we can find the prime factorization of 405, 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 405 = 34 × 51
Therefore, the total number of factors are (4 + 1) × (1 + 1) = 5 × 2 = 10 -
Example 2: Find the Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) and Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 405 and 163.
Solution:
The factors of 405 are 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 27, 45, 81, 135, 405 and factors of 163 are 1, 163.
Therefore, the Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) of 405 and 163 is 66015 and Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 405 and 163 is 1. -
Example 3: Find if 5, 15, 81, 109, 135 and 405 are factors of 405.
Solution:
When we divide 405 by 109 it leaves a remainder. Therefore, the number 109 is not a factor of 405. All numbers except 109 are factors of 405.
