<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>All numbers are divisible by 1 and itself.</p>
26
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Divide 1360 by 2. It is divisible by 2, so 2 is a factor of 1360.</p>
26
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Divide 1360 by 2. It is divisible by 2, so 2 is a factor of 1360.</p>
27
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide 1360 by 3. It is not divisible by 3, so 3 is not a factor of 1360.</p>
27
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide 1360 by 3. It is not divisible by 3, so 3 is not a factor of 1360.</p>
28
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>You can simplify checking divisors up to 1360 by finding the<a>square</a>root value. We then need to only check divisors up to the root value.</p>
