Is 25 a factor of 530?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 25 is a factor of 530.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 530 and then seeing if 25 is one of them. The factors of 530 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 53, 106, 265, and 530. Looking at the list, you see that 25 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 25 a factor of 530?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 530 by 25 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 25 is a factor of 530. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 25 is not a factor of 530.

530 divided by 25 is 21.2 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 25 a factor of 530?" is no.
