What are the Factors of 280?

The following are the different types of factors of 280:

• Factors of 280: 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 14, 20, 28, 35, 40, 56, 70, 140, 280

• Negative Factors of 280: -1, -2, -4, -5, -7, -8, -10, -14, -20, -28, -35, -40, -56, -70, -140, -280

• Prime Factors of 280: 2, 5, 7

• Prime Factorization of 280: $2^3\times5^1\times7^1$

Factors by Division Method

To calculate the factors of 280, 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: 280 ÷ 2 = 140
Step 2: 140 ÷ 2 = 70
Step 3: 70 ÷ 2 = 35
Step 4: 35 ÷ 5 = 7
Step 5: 7 ÷ 7 = 1

In step 5, we have reached to 1, and so, the process is stopped.

• Prime Factors of 280: $2\times2\times2\times5\times7$

• Prime Factorization of 280: $2^3\times5^1\times7^1$

The factors will be all the multiples of 1, 2, 2, 2, 5, 7, 35, 70, 140, 280

Calculating all the factors:
2 = 1 x 2
4 = 1 x 2 x 2
5 = 1 x 5
7 = 1 x 7
8 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 2
10 = 2 x 5
14 = 2 x 7
20 = 2 x 2 x 5
28 = 2 x 2 x 7
35 = 1 x 35
40 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 5
56 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 7
70 = 1 x 70
140 = 1 x 140
280 = 1 x 280

Finally Factors of 280 = 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 14, 20, 28, 35, 40, 56, 70, 140, 280
