A factor of a number is any number that can divide it evenly (without any remainder).
For example, factors of 27 are the numbers that divide 27 completely without any remainder.
To find the factors of 27, we check which numbers can divide 27 evenly:
- 1 × 27 = 27
- 3 × 9 = 27
So, the factors of 27 are:
1, 3, 9, and 27
These are the only numbers that can divide 27 without leaving a remainder.
