What are the Factors of 248?

The following are the different types of factors of 248:

• Factors of 248: 1, 2, 4, 8, 31, 62, 124, 248

• Negative Factors of 248: -1, -2, -4, -8, -31, -62, -124, -248

• Prime Factors of 248: 2, 31

• Prime Factorization of 248: $2^3\times31^1$

Factors by Division Method

To calculate the factors of 248, 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: 248 ÷ 2 = 124
Step 2: 124 ÷ 2 = 62
Step 3: 62 ÷ 2 = 31
Step 4: 31 ÷ 31 = 1

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

• Prime Factors of 248: $2\times2\times2\times31$

• Prime Factorization of 248: $2^3\times31^1$

The factors will be all the multiples of 1, 2, 2, 2, 31, 62, 124, 248

Calculating all the factors:
2 = 1 x 2
4 = 1 x 2 x 2
8 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 2
31 = 1 x 31
62 = 1 x 62
124 = 1 x 124
248 = 1 x 248

Finally Factors of 248 = 1, 2, 4, 8, 31, 62, 124, 248
