</ul><h3>Finding Factors Using Multiplication</h3>
18
-
<p>To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 460. Identifying the numbers that are multiplied to get the number 460 is the multiplication method.</p>
19
-
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Multiply 460 by 1, 460 × 1 = 460.</p>
20
-
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Check for other numbers that give 460 after multiplying</p>
21
-
<p>2 × 230 = 460 4 × 115 = 460 5 × 92 = 460 10 × 46 = 460 20 × 23 = 460</p>
22
-
<p>Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 460 are: (1, 460), (2, 230), (4, 115), (5, 92), (10, 46), (20, 23).</p>
23
-
<p>For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.</p>

<h3>Finding Factors Using Division Method</h3>
27
-
<p>Dividing the given numbers with<a>whole numbers</a>until the remainder becomes zero and listing out the numbers that result as whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method</p>
28
-
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Divide 460 by 1, 460 ÷ 1 = 460.</p>
29
-
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Continue dividing 460 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.</p>
30
-
<p>460 ÷ 1 = 460 460 ÷ 2 = 230 460 ÷ 4 = 115 460 ÷ 5 = 92 460 ÷ 10 = 46 460 ÷ 20 = 23</p>
31
-
<p>Therefore, the factors of 460 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 23, 46, 92, 115, 230, 460.</p>

<h3>Prime Factors and Prime Factorization</h3>
33
-
<p>The factors can be found by dividing it with<a>prime numbers</a>. We can find the<a>prime factors</a>using the following methods:</p>
34
-
<ul><li>Using prime factorization</li>
35
-
<li>Using<a>factor tree</a> </li>
36
-
</ul><p>Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 460 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.</p>
37
-
<p>460 ÷ 2 = 230 230 ÷ 2 = 115 115 ÷ 5 = 23 23 ÷ 23 = 1</p>
38
-
<p>The prime factors of 460 are 2, 5, and 23.</p>
39
-
<p>The prime factorization of 460 is: 2 × 2 × 5 × 23.</p>

2
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Firstly, 460 is divided by 2 to get 230.</p>
43
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide 230 by 2 to get 115.</p>
3
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now divide 230 by 2 to get 115.</p>
44
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Then divide 115 by 5 to get 23.</p>
4
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Then divide 115 by 5 to get 23.</p>
45
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Here, 23 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore.</p>
5
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Here, 23 is the smallest prime number, that cannot be divided anymore.</p>
46
<p>So, the prime factorization of 460 is: 2 × 2 × 5 × 23.</p>
6
<p>So, the prime factorization of 460 is: 2 × 2 × 5 × 23.</p>

<h3>Problem 1</h3>
53
-
<p>There are 23 students and 460 pencils. How will they divide it equally?</p>
54
-
<p>Okay, lets begin</p>
55
-
<p>They will get 20 pencils each.</p>
56
-
<h3>Explanation</h3>
57
-
<p>To divide the pencils equally, we need to divide the total pencils with the number of students. 460/23 = 20</p>
58
-
<p>Well explained 👍</p>

<h3>Problem 2</h3>
60
-
<p>A field is rectangular, the length of the field is 23 meters and the total area is 460 square meters. Find the width?</p>
61
-
<p>Okay, lets begin</p>
62
-
<p>20 meters.</p>
63
-
<h3>Explanation</h3>
64
-
<p>To find the width of the field, we use the formula, Area = length × width 460 = 23 × width To find the value of width, we need to shift 23 to the left side. 460/23 = width</p>
65
-
<p>Width = 20.</p>
