What are Factors of 566?

Factors of 566 are pairs of those numbers whose products result in 566. These factors are either prime numbers or composite numbers.

How to Find the Factors of 566?

To find the factors of 566, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 566 without leaving any remainder.

566/2 = 283; therefore, 2 is a factor of 566 and 283 is also a factor of 566.
566/566 = 1; therefore, 566 is a factor of 566 and 1 is also a factor of 566.

Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 566 are 1, 2, 283, 566.

Factors of 566 by Prime Factorization

The number 566 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 566. The first step is to divide the number 566 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 2. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.

566 ÷ 2 = 283

Further dividing 283 by 2 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 283 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 566 can be written as 2¹ × 283¹ where 2, 283 are prime.

Factors of 566 in Pairs

Pair factors of 566 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 566. The factors of 566 in pairs are:

1 × 566 = (1, 566)
2 × 283 = (2, 283)

Negative pair factors of 566 are:

-1 × -566 = (-1, -566)
-2 × -283 = (-2, -283)

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

Factors of 566 Solved Examples

Example 1: How many factors are there for 566?

Solution:

The factors of 566 are 1, 2, 283, 566. Therefore, 566 has 4 factors.
Example 2: Find the Least Common Multiple and Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 566 and 407.

Solution:

The factors of 566 are 1, 2, 283, 566 and factors of 407 are 1, 11, 37, 407.

Therefore, the Least Common Multiple of 566 and 407 is 230362 and Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 566 and 407 is 1.
Example 3: Find if 2, 189 and 566 are factors of 566.

Solution:

When we divide 566 by 189 it leaves a remainder. Therefore, the number 189 is not a factor of 566. All numbers except 189 are factors of 566.
Example 4: Find the product of all the prime factors of 566.

Solution:

Since, the prime factors of 566 are 2, 283. Therefore, the product of prime factors = 2 × 283 = 566.
