How to find the Factors of 3
Divide 3 by every whole number from 1 up to 1. Each division without a remainder gives a factor and its pair. There is no point going further: 2 × 2 = 4 is already greater than 3, so any larger divisor would pair with a smaller one you have already checked.
- 3 ÷ 1 = 3 — factors 1 and 3
Why 3 has exactly 2 factors
3 is a prime number: nothing divides it evenly except 1 and itself. That is the whole reason it has exactly two factors — a prime has no others, however large it is.
