Is 3 a factor of 372?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 3 is a factor of 372.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 372 and then seeing if 3 is one of them. The factors of 372 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 31, 62, 93, 124, 186, and 372. Looking at the list, you see that 3 is on the list, and the answer to "Is 3 a factor of 372?" is therefore yes.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 372 by 3 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 is a factor of 372. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 3 is not a factor of 372.

372 divided by 3 is 124 which is a whole number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 3 a factor of 372?" is yes.
