<p>To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 7.5. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 7.5 is the multiplication method. Step 1: Multiply 7.5 by 1, 7.5 × 1 = 7.5. Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 7.5 after multiplying 1.5 × 5 = 7.5 2.5 × 3 = 7.5 Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 7.5 are: (1, 7.5), (1.5, 5), (2.5, 3). All these factor pairs result in 7.5. For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.</p>

<p>Dividing the given numbers with the<a>whole numbers</a>or<a>decimals</a>until the remainder becomes zero and listing out the numbers which result as whole numbers or<a>terminating decimals</a>as factors. Factors can be calculated by following the simple division method - Step 1: Divide 7.5 by 1, 7.5 ÷ 1 = 7.5. Step 2: Continue dividing 7.5 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0. 7.5 ÷ 1 = 7.5 7.5 ÷ 1.5 = 5 7.5 ÷ 2.5 = 3 7.5 ÷ 3 = 2.5 7.5 ÷ 5 = 1.5 Therefore, the factors of 7.5 are: 1, 1.5, 2.5, 3, 5, 7.5.</p>

<h2>Factor Tree</h2>

<p>The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows - Step 1: Firstly, 7.5 is divided by 1.5 to get 5. Step 2: Now divide 5 by 5 to get 1. Here, 5 is the smallest prime number that cannot be divided anymore. So, the prime factorization of 7.5 is: 3 × 2.5. Factor Pairs Two numbers that are multiplied to give a specific number are called factor pairs. Both positive and negative factors constitute factor pairs. Positive factor pairs of 7.5: (1, 7.5), (1.5, 5), (2.5, 3). Negative factor pairs of 7.5: (-1, -7.5), (-1.5, -5), (-2.5, -3).</p>
