Factorization
Lesson 3-2
Factors
Factors are the numbers you multiply
together to get a product.
For example, the product 24 has several
factors.
24 = 1 x 24
24 = 2 x 12
24 = 3 x 8
24 = 4 x 6
SO, the factors are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
Finding Factors
Start with 1 times the number.
Try 2, 3, 4, etc.
When you repeat your factors, cross out
the repeat - youre done at this point.
If you get doubles (such as 4 x 4), then
youre done. Repeats or doubles let
you know youre done.
