How to Find the Factors of 578?

To find the factors of 578, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 578 without leaving any remainder.

• 578/2 = 289; therefore, 2 is a factor of 578 and 289 is also a factor of 578.
• 578/34 = 17; therefore, 34 is a factor of 578 and 17 is also a factor of 578.

Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 578 are 1, 2, 17, 34, 289, 578.

• Factors of 75 - The factors of 75 are 1, 3, 5, 15, 25, 75
• Factors of 20 - The factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
• Factors of 13 - The factors of 13 are 1, 13

The number 578 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 578. The first step is to divide the number 578 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 2. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.

• 578 ÷ 2 = 289

Further dividing 289 by 2 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 289 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 578 can be written as 2¹ × 17² where 2, 17 are prime.

Pair factors of 578 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 578. The factors of 578 in pairs are:

• 1 × 578 = (1, 578)
• 2 × 289 = (2, 289)
• 17 × 34 = (17, 34)

Negative pair factors of 578 are:

• -1 × -578 = (-1, -578)
• -2 × -289 = (-2, -289)
• -17 × -34 = (-17, -34)

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