Is 28 a factor of 508?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 28 is a factor of 508.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 508 and then seeing if 28 is one of them. The factors of 508 are 1, 2, 4, 127, 254, and 508. Looking at the list, you see that 28 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 28 a factor of 508?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 508 by 28 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 28 is a factor of 508. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 28 is not a factor of 508.

508 divided by 28 is 18.14285714 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 28 a factor of 508?" is no.
