Is 4 a factor of 980?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 4 is a factor of 980.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 980 and then seeing if 4 is one of them. The factors of 980 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 10, 14, 20, 28, 35, 49, 70, 98, 140, 196, 245, 490, and 980. Looking at the list, you see that 4 is on the list, and the answer to "Is 4 a factor of 980?" is therefore yes.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 980 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 980. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 4 is not a factor of 980.

980 divided by 4 is 245 which is a whole number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 4 a factor of 980?" is yes.
