How to Find the Factors of 422?

To find the factors of 422, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 422 without leaving any remainder.

• 422/211 = 2; therefore, 211 is a factor of 422 and 2 is also a factor of 422.
• 422/422 = 1; therefore, 422 is a factor of 422 and 1 is also a factor of 422.

Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 422 are 1, 2, 211, 422.

• Factors of 96 - The factors of 96 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 96

The number 422 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 422. The first step is to divide the number 422 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 2. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.

• 422 ÷ 2 = 211

Further dividing 211 by 2 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 211 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 422 can be written as 2¹ × 211¹ where 2, 211 are prime.

Pair factors of 422 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 422. The factors of 422 in pairs are:

• 1 × 422 = (1, 422)
• 2 × 211 = (2, 211)

Negative pair factors of 422 are:

• -1 × -422 = (-1, -422)
• -2 × -211 = (-2, -211)

NOTE: If (a, b) is a pair factor of a number then (b, a) is also a pair factor of that number.
