Because it is a factor of that number. Factors are a fundamental part of number theory
The best way to have many factors is to build a number by multiplying many small numbers together. For example, a number that is the product of 2x3x4x5 will have many factors. 2x3x4x5 is 120. The factors of 120 are (listed as factor pairs) 1,120, 2,60, 3,40, 4,30, 5,24, 6,20, 8,15, 10,12. That's 16 factors.How about if we multiplied out 2's and 3's until the number was just below 150: 2x3x2x3x2 is 72. We can't get away with another 3 so put in another 2: 2x3x2x3x2x2 is 144. The factors of 144 are 1,144, 2,72, 3,48, 4,36, 6,24, 8,18, 9,16, 12,12. That is also 16 factors, but we can't really count 12 twice, so there are only 15 unique factors of 144.
The factors of 48 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48.The prime factors of 48 are: 2 and 3.The factors of 112 are: 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 56, and 112.The prime factors of 112 are: 2 and 7.The factors of 144 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 144.The prime factors of 144 are: 2 and 3.
Square root of 144 is 12
Negative numbers have no real square roots.-144 has two square roots: 12i and -12i.
This number has 144 factors.
you have to count 144 times.
Yes.
144 is not prime. 144 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3
144 = 122 it has many factors, 2,3,4,6,8,9, 12, 16,18,24,36,48,72
It is actually 144
144 is a composite number because it has more than two factors
The factors of 144 are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 144.
13
144
Looking at 144, you can quickly see that it is an even number and all even numbers are divided by 2. Since prime numbers only have two factors (1 and the number itself), 144 has to be a composite number.
The term common factors specifically refers to the factors shared by two or more numbers. Since 144 is a single number, you could say that it shares all of its factors with itself.The factors of 144 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72, and 144.
