What are the Factors of 12?

Answer

Factors of 12:

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

6 factors · 12 = 2² × 3 · composite

Underlined — prime: 2, 3 · 1 — neither prime nor composite · others — composite

Factor pairs of 12

3 pairs: 1 × 12 · 2 × 6 · 3 × 4

Past √12 ≈ 3.46 every pair would repeat one already found — so checking stops at 3.

12 = 2² × 3 → (2 + 1) × (1 + 1) = 6 factors: add 1 to each exponent and multiply.
