How to Find the Factors of 427?

To find the factors of 427, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 427 without leaving any remainder.

• 427/7 = 61; therefore, 7 is a factor of 427 and 61 is also a factor of 427.
• 427/427 = 1; therefore, 427 is a factor of 427 and 1 is also a factor of 427.

Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 427 are 1, 7, 61, 427.

• Factors of 50 - The factors of 50 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50
• Factors of 11 - The factors of 11 are 1, 11
• Factors of 57 - The factors of 57 are 1, 3, 19, 57
• Factors of 98 - The factors of 98 are 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98

The number 427 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 427. The first step is to divide the number 427 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 7. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.

• 427 ÷ 7 = 61

Further dividing 61 by 7 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 61 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 427 can be written as 7¹ × 61¹ where 7, 61 are prime.

Pair factors of 427 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 427. The factors of 427 in pairs are:

• 1 × 427 = (1, 427)
• 7 × 61 = (7, 61)

Negative pair factors of 427 are:

• -1 × -427 = (-1, -427)
• -7 × -61 = (-7, -61)

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