Factors of 108

The two numbers which gets multiplied and produce the result as 108, then these numbers are the factors of 108.

These numbers can be positive or negative but cannot be in decimal form or fractions. Let’s take an example to understand this concept. The factor pair for number 31 will be

(1, 31) (-1, -31)

When we multiply the factors (1, 31) we get the number 31.

Similarly even when we multiply the two negative factors(-1, -31) then we get the number 31 only.

So, we can say that both positive and negative factors pairs of 31are the factors of 31. We will use the same factorization method to find the factors and multiples of 108.

In this method we need to first consider the number itself and one as the factors, so 108 and 1is the factors of 108 and then keep finding the factors of 108 which shall give us the number 108.

Pair Factors of 108

To find the pair factors of 108, multiply the 2 no.s in a pair to have the original numbers as 108, such numbers are as follows:

(1, 108)

(2, 54)

(3, 36)

(4, 27)

(6, 18)

(9, 12)

These were the positive pair factors for 108.

Prime Factors of 108

These are the negative pair factors for 108.

(-1, -108)

(-2, -54)

(-3, -36)

(-4, -27)

(-6, -18)

(-9, -18).

So the factors of 108 are 1, 2, 3 ,4 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 108.
