A factor of a number is any number that can divide it evenly (without any remainder).
For example, factors of 15 are the numbers that divide 15 completely without any remainder.
To find the factors of 15, we check which numbers can divide 15 evenly:
- 1 × 15 = 15
- 3 × 5 = 15
So, the factors of 15 are:
1, 3, 5, and 15
These are the only numbers that can divide 15 without leaving a remainder.
