3 <p>Factors are the numbers that divide any given number evenly without remainder. In daily life, we use factors for tasks like sharing items equally, arranging things, etc. In this topic, we will learn about the factors of 117, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.</p>

4 <h2>What are the Factors of 117?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>numbers</a>that divide 117 evenly are known as<a>factors</a>of 117. A factor of 117 is a number that divides the number without<a>remainder</a>. The factors of 117 are 1, 3, 9, 13, 39, and 117.</p>

6 <p><strong>Negative factors of 117:</strong>-1, -3, -9, -13, -39, and -117.</p>

7 <p><strong>Prime factors of 117:</strong>3 and 13.</p>

8 <p><strong>Prime factorization of 117:</strong>3² × 13.</p>

9 <p><strong>The<a>sum</a>of factors of 117:</strong>1 + 3 + 9 + 13 + 39 + 117 = 182</p>

10 <h2>How to Find Factors of 117?</h2>

11 <p>Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:</p>

12 <ol><li>Finding factors using<a>multiplication</a></li>

13 <li>Finding factors using<a>division</a>method</li>

14 <li>Prime factors and Prime factorization</li>

15 </ol><h2>Finding Factors Using Multiplication</h2>

16 <p>To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 117. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 117 is the multiplication method.</p>

17 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Multiply 117 by 1, 117 × 1 = 117.</p>

18 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Check for other numbers that give 117 after multiplying 3 × 39 = 117 9 × 13 = 117</p>

19 <p>Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 117 are: (1, 117), (3, 39), (9, 13).</p>

20 <p>All these factor pairs result in 117. For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.</p>

49 <h3>Problem 1</h3>

50 <p>There are 13 students and 117 apples. How will they divide them equally?</p>

51 <p>Okay, lets begin</p>

52 <p>They will get 9 apples each.</p>

53 <h3>Explanation</h3>

54 <p>To divide the apples equally, we need to divide the total apples with the number of students.</p>

55 <p>117/13 = 9</p>

56 <p>Well explained 👍</p>

57 <h3>Problem 2</h3>

58 <p>A plot is rectangular, and the length of the plot is 9 meters with a total area of 117 square meters. Find the width.</p>

59 <p>Okay, lets begin</p>

60 <p>13 meters.</p>

61 <h3>Explanation</h3>

62 <p>To find the width of the plot, we use the formula,</p>

63 <p>Area = length × width</p>

64 <p>117 = 9 × width</p>

65 <p>To find the value of width, we need to shift 9 to the left side.</p>

66 <p>117/9 = width</p>

67 <p>Width = 13.</p>
