Is 10 a factor of 270?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 10 is a factor of 270.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 270 and then seeing if 10 is one of them. The factors of 270 are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 27, 30, 45, 54, 90, 135, and 270. Looking at the list, you see that 10 is on the list, and the answer to "Is 10 a factor of 270?" is therefore yes.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 270 by 10 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 10 is a factor of 270. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 10 is not a factor of 270.

270 divided by 10 is 27 which is a whole number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 10 a factor of 270?" is yes.
