<p><strong>- Step 2:</strong>Divide 1366 by 2. It is divisible by 2, so 2 is a factor of 1366.</p>
27
<p><strong>- Step 3:</strong>Divide 1366 by 3. It is not divisible by 3, so 3 is not a factor of 1366.</p>
27
<p><strong>- Step 3:</strong>Divide 1366 by 3. It is not divisible by 3, so 3 is not a factor of 1366.</p>
28
<p><strong>- Step 4:</strong>You can simplify checking divisors up to 1366 by finding the root value. We then need to only check divisors up to the root value.</p>
