Is 39 a factor of 65?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 39 is a factor of 65.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 65 and then seeing if 39 is one of them. The factors of 65 are 1, 5, 13, and 65. Looking at the list, you see that 39 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 39 a factor of 65?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 65 by 39 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 39 is a factor of 65. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 39 is not a factor of 65.

65 divided by 39 is 1.666666667 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 39 a factor of 65?" is no.
