Is 26 a factor of 887?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 26 is a factor of 887.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 887 and then seeing if 26 is one of them. The factors of 887 are 1 and 887. Looking at the list, you see that 26 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 26 a factor of 887?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 887 by 26 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 26 is a factor of 887. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 26 is not a factor of 887.

887 divided by 26 is 34.11538462 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 26 a factor of 887?" is no.
