Factor Pairs of 24

A Factor Pair of number 24 is a combination of two factors which can be multiplied together to equal 24.

List of all possible Factor Pairs of 24:

  • 1 × 24 = 24
  • 2 × 12 = 24
  • 3 × 8 = 24
  • 4 × 6 = 24

How to find the Factors of 24

Divide 24 by every whole number from 1 up to 4. Each division without a remainder gives a factor and its pair. There is no point going further: 5 × 5 = 25 is already greater than 24, so any larger divisor would pair with a smaller one you have already checked.

  • 24 ÷ 1 = 24 — factors 1 and 24
  • 24 ÷ 2 = 12 — factors 2 and 12
  • 24 ÷ 3 = 8 — factors 3 and 8
  • 24 ÷ 4 = 6 — factors 4 and 6

Why 24 has exactly 8 factors

The count follows from the prime factorization: add 1 to each exponent and multiply. Counting the divisors this way needs no trial division at all, however large the number is.

24 = 23 × 3

(3 + 1) × (1 + 1) = 8

Step-by-step factorization: Prime factors of 24.
