How to Find the Factors of 539?

To find the factors of 539, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 539 without leaving any remainder.

• 539/539 = 1; therefore, 539 is a factor of 539.
• 539/7 = 77; therefore, 7 is a factor of 539.

Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 539 are 1, 7, 11, 49, 77, 539.

• Factors of 72 - The factors of 72 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
• Factors of 8 - The factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, 8
• Factors of 27 - The factors of 27 are 1, 3, 9, 27

The number 539 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 539. The first step is to divide the number 539 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 7. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.

• 539 ÷ 7 = 77
• 77 ÷ 7 = 11

Further dividing 11 by 7 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 11 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 539 can be written as 7² × 11¹ where 7, 11 are prime.

Pair factors of 539 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 539. The factors of 539 in pairs are:

• 1 × 539 = (1, 539)
• 7 × 77 = (7, 77)
• 11 × 49 = (11, 49)

Negative pair factors of 539 are:

• -1 × -539 = (-1, -539)
• -7 × -77 = (-7, -77)
• -11 × -49 = (-11, -49)

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