How to Find the Factors of 8
Today we are going to know how to find out the factors of 8 in just few steps.
Step-1:
◆The numbers that can divide 8 without remainder are called 8's factors.
◆Rule-1: N's factor is the number that can divide N without remainder.
◆Notice that the factors always includes 1 and itself.
Step-2:
Notice that the factors always includes 1 and itself.
So,the factors of 8 are 1, ............8.
●A simple way is to find what pairs of numbers multiply to get 8.
●8 = 1× 8
8 is divisible by 1 and 8bwithout any remainder.So,1 and 8 are the two factors of 8.
Proofs:
●8/1=8
●8/8=1
Step-3:
Already we have gotten two factors of 8 which are 1 and 8.In this step we will find out other factors of 8 by applying the following rule.
◆N's factor is the number that can divide N without remainder.
So,the numbers that can divide 8 without remainder are called 8's factors.
●A simple way is to find what pairs of numbers multiply to get 8.
●8=2 ×4
Proofs:
●8/2=4
●8/4=2
8 is divisible by 2 and 4 without any remainder.
So,the total number of positive factors of 8 (including 1 and itself) are 1,2,4 and 8.
Step-4
●We have to keep in mind that the factors of an integer include both the positive and negative integers.
So, the factors of 8 include negative numbers or integers. Hence, all the positive factors of 8 can be easily converted to negative numbers .The negative factors of 8 are given below:
-1,-2,-4, and -8.
Look carefully:
(◆Negative times Negative=Positive)
◆8= -1 × -8
◆8= -2 × -4
So,the total number of negative factors of 8 are -1,-2,-4 and -8.

◆Factor Pairs of 8
Here are the factor pairs of 8.
●A simple way is to find what pairs of numbers multiply to get 8.
●8=1 × 8
●8=2 × 4
Look carefully:
●8=-1 × -8
●8=-2× -4
The integer 8 has 4 factor pairs.These are given below:
1 × 8,2 × 4
