What are the Factors of 100?

The following are the different types of factors of 100:

• Factors of 100: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100

• Negative Factors of 100: -1, -2, -4, -5, -10, -20, -25, -50, -100

• Prime Factors of 100: 2, 5

• Prime Factorization of 100: $2^2\times5^2$

Factors by Division Method

To calculate the factors of 100, start by dividing the numbers by the smallest prime number, which is 2. If the number is not divisible by 2, proceed to the next prime number, such as 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, and continue this process until you reach 1.

Step 1: 100 ÷ 2 = 50
Step 2: 50 ÷ 2 = 25
Step 3: 25 ÷ 5 = 5
Step 4: 5 ÷ 5 = 1

In step 4, we have reached to 1, and so, the process is stopped.

• Prime Factors of 100: $2\times2\times5\times5$

• Prime Factorization of 100: $2^2\times5^2$

The factors will be all the multiples of 1, 2, 2, 5, 5, 25, 50, 100

Calculating all the factors:
2 = 1 x 2
4 = 1 x 2 x 2
5 = 1 x 5
10 = 2 x 5
20 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 5
25 = 1 x 25
50 = 1 x 50
100 = 1 x 100

Finally Factors of 100 = 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100
