What are the Factors of 318?

The following are the different types of factors of 318:

• Factors of 318: 1, 2, 3, 6, 53, 106, 159, 318

• Negative Factors of 318: -1, -2, -3, -6, -53, -106, -159, -318

• Prime Factors of 318: 2, 3, 53

• Prime Factorization of 318: $2^1\times3^1\times53^1$

Factors by Division Method

To calculate the factors of 318, 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: 318 ÷ 2 = 159
Step 2: 159 ÷ 3 = 53
Step 3: 53 ÷ 53 = 1

In step 3, we have reached to 1, and so, the process is stopped.

• Prime Factors of 318: $2\times3\times53$

• Prime Factorization of 318: $2^1\times3^1\times53^1$

The factors will be all the multiples of 1, 2, 3, 53, 159, 318

Calculating all the factors:
2 = 1 x 2
3 = 1 x 3
6 = 1 x 2 x 3
53 = 1 x 53
106 = 2 x 53
159 = 1 x 159
318 = 1 x 318

Finally Factors of 318 = 1, 2, 3, 6, 53, 106, 159, 318
