Divide the number 32 by successive prime numbers to get the factors until you cant divide any more numbers... 32/1=32 (factors are 1 and 32) 32/2=16 (factors are 2 and 16) 32/3=does not divide to be a whole number 32/4=8 (factors are 4 and 8) 32/5=does not divide to be a whole number 32/6=does not divide to be a whole number 32/7=does not divide to be a whole number Now you done with all the numbers you can. Therefore 1,32,2,16,4 and 8 are factors.
All numbers have factors. Some numbers have some of the same factors as other numbers. Multiples of numbers have all of the factors of numbers that are factors of them, plus some of their own. 32 is a multiple of 16 and will have all of its factors. 64 is a multiple of both 32 and 16 and will have all of their factors.
Since 160 = 16 x 10 = 16 x 2 x 5, if you know the factors of 16, then just tack on the [2 x 5] factors, to have all the factors of 160.
Oh, isn't that a happy little question! So, when we look at 16 and 24, we can see that their common factors are 1, 2, 4, and 8. These numbers can peacefully divide into both 16 and 24, creating a harmonious relationship between the two.
