Is 4 a factor of 27?


Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 4 is a factor of 27.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 27 and then seeing if 4 is one of them. The factors of 27 are 1, 3, 9, and 27. Looking at the list, you see that 4 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 4 a factor of 27?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 27 by 4 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 is a factor of 27. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 4 is not a factor of 27.

27 divided by 4 is 6.75 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 4 a factor of 27?" is no.
