Is 2 a factor of 649?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 2 is a factor of 649.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 649 and then seeing if 2 is one of them. The factors of 649 are 1, 11, 59, and 649. Looking at the list, you see that 2 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 2 a factor of 649?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 649 by 2 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 is a factor of 649. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 2 is not a factor of 649.

649 divided by 2 is 324.5 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 2 a factor of 649?" is no.
