What are the Factors of 189?

The following are the different types of factors of 189:

• Factors of 189: 1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 27, 63, 189

• Negative Factors of 189: -1, -3, -7, -9, -21, -27, -63, -189

• Prime Factors of 189: 3, 7

• Prime Factorization of 189: $3^3\times7^1$

Factors by Division Method

To calculate the factors of 189, start by dividing the numbers by the smallest prime number, which is 2. If the number is not divisible by 2, proceed to the next prime number, such as 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, and continue this process until you reach 1.

Step 1: 189 ÷ 3 = 63
Step 2: 63 ÷ 3 = 21
Step 3: 21 ÷ 3 = 7
Step 4: 7 ÷ 7 = 1

In step 4, we have reached to 1, and so, the process is stopped.

• Prime Factors of 189: $3\times3\times3\times7$

• Prime Factorization of 189: $3^3\times7^1$

The factors will be all the multiples of 1, 3, 3, 3, 7, 21, 63, 189

Calculating all the factors:
3 = 1 x 3
7 = 1 x 7
9 = 1 x 3 x 3
21 = 1 x 21
27 = 1 x 3 x 3 x 3
63 = 1 x 63
189 = 1 x 189

Finally Factors of 189 = 1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 27, 63, 189
