Is 23 a factor of 361?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 23 is a factor of 361.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 361 and then seeing if 23 is one of them. The factors of 361 are 1, 19, and 361. Looking at the list, you see that 23 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 23 a factor of 361?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 361 by 23 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 23 is a factor of 361. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 23 is not a factor of 361.

361 divided by 23 is 15.69565217 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 23 a factor of 361?" is no.
