(number 38 has 4 factors)

Factor Pairs of 38

A Factor Pair of number 38 is a combination of two factors which can be multiplied together to equal 38.

List of all possible Factor Pairs of 38:

  • 1 × 38 = 38
  • 2 × 19 = 38

How to find the Factors of 38

Divide 38 by every whole number from 1 up to 6. Each division without a remainder gives a factor and its pair. There is no point going further: 7 × 7 = 49 is already greater than 38, so any larger divisor would pair with a smaller one you have already checked.

  • 38 ÷ 1 = 38 — factors 1 and 38
  • 38 ÷ 2 = 19 — factors 2 and 19
  • 38 ÷ 3 — remainder 2, not a factor
  • 38 ÷ 4 — remainder 2, not a factor
  • 38 ÷ 5 — remainder 3, not a factor
  • 38 ÷ 6 — remainder 2, not a factor

Why 38 has exactly 4 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.

38 = 2 × 19

(1 + 1) × (1 + 1) = 4

Step-by-step factorization: Prime factors of 38.
