Is 24 a factor of 539?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 24 is a factor of 539.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 539 and then seeing if 24 is one of them. The factors of 539 are 1, 7, 11, 49, 77, and 539. Looking at the list, you see that 24 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 24 a factor of 539?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 539 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 539. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 24 is not a factor of 539.

539 divided by 24 is 22.45833333 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 24 a factor of 539?" is no.
