Question

Write all the factors of $72$ ?

Answer 1

Finding the factors of $72$:

Factor: A Factor of a number is an exact divisor of that number.

The given number is $72$

Here,

$$\begin{gathered} 72÷1=72, \\ 72÷2=36, \\ 72÷3=24, \\ 72÷4=18, \\ 72÷6=12, \\ 72÷8=9, \\ 72÷9=8, \\ 72÷12=6, \\ 72÷18=4, \\ 72÷24=3, \\ 72÷36=2, \\ 72÷72=1 \end{gathered}$$

Clearly, $72$ is exactly divisible by $1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,18,24,36,72$

Hence, all the factors of $72$ are $1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,18,24,36,72$
