               Sub-topic-2:- FACTORS AND ITS PROPERTIES


               Factors: Numbers that are multiplied together to get a product, is called as factor.

                              Factor x Factor = Product.

               Example1:


















               Example2: Find all the factor of 36.

               Procedure: Check which number will be multiply to get 36

               36= 1 x 36

                      2 x 18


                      3 x 12

                      4 x 9

                      6 x 6

               Hence, all the factor of 36 is 1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,36


               Factor: When a number divides another number exactly, then the divisor is called a
               factor of the dividend.

               A factor divides a number completely without leaving any remainder.
               Example 1:
