Is 12 a factor of 602?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 12 is a factor of 602.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 602 and then seeing if 12 is one of them. The factors of 602 are 1, 2, 7, 14, 43, 86, 301, and 602. Looking at the list, you see that 12 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 12 a factor of 602?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 602 by 12 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 12 is a factor of 602. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 12 is not a factor of 602.

602 divided by 12 is 50.16666667 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 12 a factor of 602?" is no.
