Factor Pairs of 252

A Factor Pair of number 252 is a combination of two factors which can be multiplied together to equal 252.

List of all possible Factor Pairs of 252:

  • 1 × 252 = 252
  • 2 × 126 = 252
  • 3 × 84 = 252
  • 4 × 63 = 252
  • 6 × 42 = 252
  • 7 × 36 = 252
  • 9 × 28 = 252
  • 12 × 21 = 252
  • 14 × 18 = 252

How to find the Factors of 252

Divide 252 by every whole number from 1 up to 15. Each division without a remainder gives a factor and its pair. There is no point going further: 16 × 16 = 256 is already greater than 252, so any larger divisor would pair with a smaller one you have already checked.

  • 252 ÷ 1 = 252 — factors 1 and 252
  • 252 ÷ 2 = 126 — factors 2 and 126
  • 252 ÷ 3 = 84 — factors 3 and 84
  • 252 ÷ 4 = 63 — factors 4 and 63
  • 252 ÷ 5 — remainder 2, not a factor
  • 252 ÷ 6 = 42 — factors 6 and 42
  • 252 ÷ 7 = 36 — factors 7 and 36
  • 252 ÷ 8 — remainder 4, not a factor
  • 252 ÷ 9 = 28 — factors 9 and 28
  • 252 ÷ 10 — remainder 2, not a factor
  • 252 ÷ 11 — remainder 10, not a factor
  • 252 ÷ 12 = 21 — factors 12 and 21
  • 252 ÷ 13 — remainder 5, not a factor
  • 252 ÷ 14 = 18 — factors 14 and 18
  • 252 ÷ 15 — remainder 12, not a factor

Why 252 has exactly 18 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.

252 = 22 × 32 × 7

(2 + 1) × (2 + 1) × (1 + 1) = 18

Step-by-step factorization: Prime factors of 252.
