What are Factors of 666?

Factors of 666 are pairs of those numbers whose products result in 666. These factors are either prime numbers or composite numbers.

How to Find the Factors of 666?

To find the factors of 666, we will have to find the list of numbers that would divide 666 without leaving any remainder.

  • 666/37 = 18; therefore, 37 is a factor of 666 and 18 is also a factor of 666.
  • 666/222 = 3; therefore, 222 is a factor of 666 and 3 is also a factor of 666.
Similarly we can find other factors. Hence, the factors of 666 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 37, 74, 111, 222, 333, 666.

Factors of 666 by Prime Factorization

The number 666 is composite and therefore it will have prime factors. Now let us learn how to calculate the prime factors of 666. The first step is to divide the number 666 with the smallest prime factor, here it is 2. We keep dividing until it gives a non-zero remainder.
  • 666 ÷ 2 = 333

Further dividing 333 by 2 gives a non-zero remainder. So we stop the process and continue dividing the number 333 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 666 can be written as 21 × 32 × 371 where 2, 3, 37 are prime.

 

Factors of 666 in Pairs

Pair factors of 666 are the pairs of numbers that when multiplied give the product 666. The factors of 666 in pairs are:

  • 1 × 666 = (1, 666)
  • 2 × 333 = (2, 333)
  • 3 × 222 = (3, 222)
  • 6 × 111 = (6, 111)
  • 9 × 74 = (9, 74)
  • 18 × 37 = (18, 37)

Negative pair factors of 666 are:

  • -1 × -666 = (-1, -666)
  • -2 × -333 = (-2, -333)
  • -3 × -222 = (-3, -222)
  • -6 × -111 = (-6, -111)
  • -9 × -74 = (-9, -74)
  • -18 × -37 = (-18, -37)

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

Factors of 666 Solved Examples

  1. Example 1: How many factors are there for 666?

    Solution:

    The factors of 666 are too many, therefore if we can find the prime factorization of 666, then the total number of factors can be calculated using the formula shown below.
    If the prime factorization of the number is ax × by × cz where a, b, c are prime, then the total number of factors can be given by (x + 1)(y + 1)(z + 1).

    Prime Factorization of 666 = 21 × 32 × 371
    Therefore, the total number of factors are (1 + 1) × (2 + 1) × (1 + 1) = 2 × 3 × 2 = 12

  2. Example 2: Find the LCM and Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of 666 and 500.

    Solution:

    The factors of 666 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 37, 74, 111, 222, 333, 666 and factors of 500 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100, 125, 250, 500.

    Therefore, the LCM of 666 and 500 is 166500 and Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of 666 and 500 is 2.

  3. Example 3: Find if 2, 6, 9, 18, 37, 222 and 375 are factors of 666.

    Solution:

    When we divide 666 by 375 it leaves a remainder. Therefore, the number 375 is not a factor of 666. All numbers except 375 are factors of 666.

  4. Example 4: Find the product of all the prime factors of 666.

    Solution:

    Since, the prime factors of 666 are 2, 3, 37. Therefore, the product of prime factors = 2 × 3 × 37 = 222.
