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 474, how they are used in real life, and tips to learn them quickly.</p>

4 <h2>What are the Factors of 474?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>numbers</a>that divide 474 evenly are known as<a>factors</a><a>of</a>474.</p>

6 <p>A factor of 474 is a number that divides the number without<a>remainder</a>.</p>

7 <p>The factors of 474 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 79, 158, 237, and 474.</p>

8 <p>Negative factors of 474: -1, -2, -3, -6, -79, -158, -237, and -474.</p>

9 <p>Prime factors of 474: 2, 3, and 79.</p>

10 <p>Prime factorization of 474: 2 × 3 × 79.</p>

11 <p>The<a>sum</a>of factors of 474: 1 + 2 + 3 + 6 + 79 + 158 + 237 + 474 = 960</p>

12 <h2>How to Find Factors of 474?</h2>

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

14 <ul><li>Finding factors using<a>multiplication</a> </li>

15 <li>Finding factors using the<a>division</a>method </li>

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

17 </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 474. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 474 is the multiplication method.</p>

19 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Multiply 474 by 1, 474 × 1 = 474.</p>

20 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Check for other numbers that give 474 after multiplying</p>

21 <p>2 × 237 = 474</p>

22 <p>3 × 158 = 474</p>

23 <p>6 × 79 = 474</p>

24 <p>Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 474 are: (1, 474), (2, 237), (3, 158), and (6, 79).</p>

25 <p>All these factor pairs result in 474.</p>

26 <p>For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.</p>

59 <h3>Problem 1</h3>

60 <p>There are 6 teams and 474 players. How will they distribute the players equally?</p>

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

62 <p>Each team will have 79 players.</p>

63 <h3>Explanation</h3>

64 <p>To distribute the players equally, we need to divide the total number of players with the number of teams.</p>

65 <p>474/6 = 79</p>

67 <h3>Problem 2</h3>

68 <p>A rectangular garden has an area of 474 square meters, and its length is 79 meters. What is the width?</p>

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

70 <p>6 meters.</p>

71 <h3>Explanation</h3>

72 <p>To find the width of the garden, we use the formula,</p>

73 <p>Area = length × width</p>

74 <p>474 = 79 × width</p>

75 <p>To find the value of width, we need to shift 79 to the left side.</p>
