Is 24 a factor of 112?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 24 is a factor of 112.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 112 and then seeing if 24 is one of them. The factors of 112 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 56, and 112. Looking at the list, you see that 24 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 24 a factor of 112?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 112 by 24 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 24 is a factor of 112. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 24 is not a factor of 112.

112 divided by 24 is 4.666666667 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 24 a factor of 112?" is no.
