Is 39 a factor of 70?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 39 is a factor of 70.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 70 and then seeing if 39 is one of them. The factors of 70 are 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, and 70. Looking at the list, you see that 39 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 39 a factor of 70?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 70 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 70. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 39 is not a factor of 70.

70 divided by 39 is 1.794871795 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 39 a factor of 70?" is no.
