When testing for numbers that 'go into' Test wi the Prime Numbers:-
#1; Is it an even number . In thisd case No. so discoiunt '2'
#2; Does it end in '5' or '10' . In this case NO so discount '5'
#3 ; Do the digits add to '9' . In this case YES 2+6+1 = 9 , so it will divide by '9'.
#4 ; '3' & '7' are the only other two possibilites, however, they will be manually tested.
Hence
261/9 = 29
261/ 3 = 87
261/7 = 37. remainder '2' So '7' DOESN'T Go
Hence '3' & '9' will go into 261.
The other unique number is '11' . e.g. 132 . To test if the middle number add to the sum of the outside numbers , in this 1 + 2 = 3 the it will divide by '11'
Try 143 , or 275
9 and 29
The only common factor is one.
For any two natural numbers a and b, if adivides b then a is the factor of b.Here 3 divides 261 that's why 3 is a factor of 261.
261,000,000
The following numbers (factors) divide evenly into 261: 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261.
261,000,000
87 does... 3 times
Called 'factors', the positive whole numbers that go into 522 evenly are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 29, 58, 87, 174, 261, 522.
Well, let's take a moment to appreciate the beauty of numbers. If we divide 261 by 9, we find that 9 goes into 261 a total of 29 times. Remember, math is just like painting - sometimes you need to take things one step at a time to see the bigger picture.
The factors of 261 are 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, and 261. The prime factors of 261 are 3 x 3 x 29.1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261
The mean of these numbers is 100 + 150 + 252 + 261 + 270 = 1033/5 = 206.6
