231 / 3 = 77So 76 + 77 +78 = 23177
Factorizations for 231 are: 1) 231 = 1x231 2) 231 = 3x7x11 3) 231 = 21x11 4) 231 = 3x77 5) 231 = 33x7
To determine factors of a number it is necessary to divide the number by prime numbers of increasing value. If there is no remainder then the prime number is a factor. The square root of 231 is approximately 15 so it is necessary to divide by all the prime numbers up to 13 (15 is not a prime number). 231 ÷ 2 leaves a remainder of 1 231 ÷ 3 divides exactly 77 times (which is 7 x 11 - both are prime numbers) 231 ÷ 5 leaves a remainder of 1 231 ÷ 7 divides exactly 33 times (which is 3 x 11 - both are prime numbers) 231 ÷ 11 divides exactly 21 times (which is 3 x 7 - both are prime numbers) 231 ÷ 13 leaves a remainder of 10 If we multiply together the three numbers that are shown to be factors 3 x 7 x 11 = 231 this confirms that there are no other factors of 231 except 1 and 231 itself. This last condition is true for every positive integer. 231 is divisible by 1, 3, 7, 11 and 231
231 + 194 = 425
The factors of 231 are: 1, 3, 7, 11, 21, 33, 77 and 231
