How to find the Factors of 200

You can use various methods to find the factors. Given below are the methods that can be used to find the factors of 200:

  • Multiplication Method
  • Division Method
  • Prime Factor and Prime Factorization
  • Factor Tree

Finding Factors Using Multiplication Method

In the multiplication method, we find the pairs of numbers where the product will be 200

Step 1: Find all the possible numbers that gives 200 as the product when paired together


Step 2: These numbers are the factors of 200


Step 3: Make a list of numbers that are multiplied together

List of numbers whose product is 200

1 × 200 = 200


2 × 100 = 200


4 × 50  =  200


5 × 40 =   200


8 × 25 =   200


10 × 20 = 200

So the pair of numbers will be (1,200), (2,100), (4,50), (5,40), (8,25), (10,20)

Finding Factors Using the Division Method

The division method finds the divisor and the quotient. These are the factors of 200.


Step 1: Always start the division of any number by 1. Both the number and 1 will be its factor. Example: 200÷1 = 200, where 1 is the divisor and 200 (result) is the quotient.


Step 2: Move to the next integer and continue this process until you find the numbers that completely divide 200.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

Prime factorization is the process where the product of prime factors gets expressed in exponential form.

Prime Factors of 200


There are two prime factors of 200


Prime factors of 200: 2,5

To find the factors of 200:

Step 1: Start the division by 2


200÷2 = 100


100÷2 = 50


50÷2 = 25

Step 2: Now divide the rest of the numbers by 5


25÷5 = 5


5÷5=1

For the prime factorization method, the product of prime factors of 200 is expressed as 23× 52
 

Factor Tree

Factor tree visually represents the breaking down of a number into its prime factors

Problem 2

Product of odd factors of 200

Okay, lets begin

 The product of odd factors is 5
 

Explanation

Numbers that are not divisible by 2 are odd. The odd factors are the odd numbers themselves. The odd factors of 200 are 1 and 5. Multiplying 1 and 5 (1×5) will give 5 as the product.

Problem 3

Find the sum of multiples of 10

Okay, lets begin

The sum of multiples of 10 from the factors of 200 is 120
 

Explanation

 The multiples of 10 from the factors of 200 are 10, 20, 40 and 50. Adding these multiples will give 120 as the sum (10+20+40+50 = 120)
