Can you stop checking for factor pairs when you find a pair that repeats?
No, you should continue checking for factor pairs even if you find a pair that repeats. A repeating pair indicates that the number is not a prime number, but there may be other factor pairs that have not been identified yet. It is important to exhaust all possible factor pairs to ensure that all factors of the number are identified accurately.
What are all the factors pairs of 63?
(63,1)(21,3)(9,7)
What does it mean find possible group sizes by writing all factors for 28?
They're looking for factor pairs. (28,1)(14,2)(7,4)
How can finding factor pairs help with finding all of the factors number?
If you know the prime factorization of a number, you can find out the total number of factors. Example: 210 2^1 x 3^1 x 5^1 x 7^1 = 210 Add one to the exponents and multiply them. 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16, the total number of factors.
Explain how to find all the factor pairs of40?
From the rules of divisibility, we know that 40 is divisible by 1, 2, 4 and 5. Divide those numbers into 40 to get the rest. (40,1)(20,2)(10,4)(8,5)
