Definition of factors in math

Multiplying two whole numbers to get the original/product number and a whole number that divides exactly into another number that is called factoring.


Factors of 7 in pairs

7 has only two factors because it is a prime number, it can only be divided by 1 and itself.
We can find the Factors of 7 by multiplying two whole numbers in a pair to get the result 7.

 Multiply by (1)       1 × 7 = 7

 There are no more possible pairs so we have all the factors in question.
Factors pairs of 7 = (1×7)

We can easily divide 7 by the smallest prime number 7.
 7÷7 = 1

 Divide the quotient again by the smallest or the next smallest prime number. We will repeat this process repeatedly until the quotient becomes 1.

 7 ÷ 7 = 1
