A factor of a number is any number that can divide it evenly (without any remainder).
For example, factors of 35 are the numbers that divide 35 completely without any remainder.
To find the factors of 35, we check which numbers can divide 35 evenly:
- 1 × 35 = 35
- 5 × 7 = 35
So, the factors of 35 are:
1, 5, 7, and 35
These are the only numbers that can divide 35 without leaving a remainder.
