Is 26 a factor of 899?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 26 is a factor of 899.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 899 and then seeing if 26 is one of them. The factors of 899 are 1, 29, 31, and 899. Looking at the list, you see that 26 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 26 a factor of 899?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 899 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 899. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 26 is not a factor of 899.

899 divided by 26 is 34.57692308 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 26 a factor of 899?" is no.
