What are the Factors of 498?

The following are the different types of factors of 498:

• Factors of 498: 1, 2, 3, 6, 83, 166, 249, 498

• Negative Factors of 498: -1, -2, -3, -6, -83, -166, -249, -498

• Prime Factors of 498: 2, 3, 83

• Prime Factorization of 498: $2^1\times3^1\times83^1$

Factors by Division Method

To calculate the factors of 498, 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: 498 ÷ 2 = 249
Step 2: 249 ÷ 3 = 83
Step 3: 83 ÷ 83 = 1

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

• Prime Factors of 498: $2\times3\times83$

• Prime Factorization of 498: $2^1\times3^1\times83^1$

The factors will be all the multiples of 1, 2, 3, 83, 249, 498

Calculating all the factors:
2 = 1 x 2
3 = 1 x 3
6 = 1 x 2 x 3
83 = 1 x 83
166 = 2 x 83
249 = 1 x 249
498 = 1 x 498

Finally Factors of 498 = 1, 2, 3, 6, 83, 166, 249, 498
