Question

Find the factors of 42 show and explain your work and list the factor pairs in a table

Answer 1

Answer:

The  factors of 42 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21 and 42. The factor pairs are 1 and 42, 2 and 21, 3 and 14, 6 and 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given number is 42.

The numbers that can divide 42 completely, are the factors of 42.

Since we know that 42 is completely divisible by  1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21 and 42, therefore the factors of 42 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21 and 42.

The list of factor pairs are shown below:

$1\times 42=42$

$2\times 21=42$

$3\times 14=42$

$6\times 7=42$

Therefore the factors of 42 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21 and 42. The factor pairs are 1 and 42, 2 and 21, 3 and 14, 6 and 7.

Answer 2

Factors of 42 are...
1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, and 42.
1 x 42 = 42
2 x 21 = 42
3 x 14 = 42
6 x 7 = 42
