Is 16 a factor of 208?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 16 is a factor of 208.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 208 and then seeing if 16 is one of them. The factors of 208 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 16, 26, 52, 104, and 208. Looking at the list, you see that 16 is on the list, and the answer to "Is 16 a factor of 208?" is therefore yes.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 208 by 16 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 16 is a factor of 208. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 16 is not a factor of 208.

208 divided by 16 is 13 which is a whole number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 16 a factor of 208?" is yes.
