Is 26 a factor of 896?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 26 is a factor of 896.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 896 and then seeing if 26 is one of them. The factors of 896 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 32, 56, 64, 112, 128, 224, 448, and 896. Looking at the list, you see that 26 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 26 a factor of 896?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 896 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 896. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 26 is not a factor of 896.

896 divided by 26 is 34.46153846 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 26 a factor of 896?" is no.
