<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>All numbers are divisible by 1 and themselves.</p>
31
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Divide 1128 by 2. It is divisible by 2, so 2 is a factor of 1128.</p>
31
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Divide 1128 by 2. It is divisible by 2, so 2 is a factor of 1128.</p>
32
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide 1128 by 3. The<a>sum</a>of its digits (1+1+2+8=12) is divisible by 3, so 3 is a factor of 1128.</p>
32
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide 1128 by 3. The<a>sum</a>of its digits (1+1+2+8=12) is divisible by 3, so 3 is a factor of 1128.</p>
33
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>You can simplify checking divisors by finding the root value. We then need to check divisors up to the root value.</p>
