What are Factors of 408?
Factors of 408 are pairs of those numbers whose products result in 408. These factors are either prime numbers or composite numbers.
How to Find the Factors of 408?
To find the factors of 408, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 408 without leaving any remainder.
- 408/12 = 34; therefore, 12 is a factor of 408 and 34 is also a factor of 408.
- 408/68 = 6; therefore, 68 is a factor of 408 and 6 is also a factor of 408.

- Factors of 90 - The factors of 90 are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90
- Factors of 78 - The factors of 78 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 13, 26, 39, 78
- Factors of 10 - The factors of 10 are 1, 2, 5, 10
- Factors of 14 - The factors of 14 are 1, 2, 7, 14
Factors of 408 by Prime Factorization
- 408 ÷ 2 = 204
- 204 ÷ 2 = 102
- 102 ÷ 2 = 51
Further dividing 51 by 2 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 51 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 408 can be written as 23 × 31 × 171 where 2, 3, 17 are prime.
Factors of 408 in Pairs
Pair factors of 408 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 408. The factors of 408 in pairs are:
- 1 × 408 = (1, 408)
- 2 × 204 = (2, 204)
- 3 × 136 = (3, 136)
- 4 × 102 = (4, 102)
- 6 × 68 = (6, 68)
- 8 × 51 = (8, 51)
- 12 × 34 = (12, 34)
- 17 × 24 = (17, 24)
Negative pair factors of 408 are:
- -1 × -408 = (-1, -408)
- -2 × -204 = (-2, -204)
- -3 × -136 = (-3, -136)
- -4 × -102 = (-4, -102)
- -6 × -68 = (-6, -68)
- -8 × -51 = (-8, -51)
- -12 × -34 = (-12, -34)
- -17 × -24 = (-17, -24)
NOTE: If (a, b) is a pair factor of a number then (b, a) is also a pair factor of that number.
Factors of 408 Solved Examples

Example 1: How many factors are there for 408?
Solution:
The factors of 408 are too many, therefore if we can find the prime factorization of 408, 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 408 = 23 × 31 × 171
Therefore, the total number of factors are (3 + 1) × (1 + 1) × (1 + 1) = 4 × 2 × 2 = 16 -
Example 2: Find the Least Common Multiple and Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 408 and 355.
