Is 17 a factor of 329?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 17 is a factor of 329.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 329 and then seeing if 17 is one of them. The factors of 329 are 1, 7, 47, and 329. Looking at the list, you see that 17 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 17 a factor of 329?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 329 by 17 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 17 is a factor of 329. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 17 is not a factor of 329.

329 divided by 17 is 19.35294118 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 17 a factor of 329?" is no.
