Is 41 a factor of 462?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 41 is a factor of 462.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 462 and then seeing if 41 is one of them. The factors of 462 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 11, 14, 21, 22, 33, 42, 66, 77, 154, 231, and 462. Looking at the list, you see that 41 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 41 a factor of 462?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 462 by 41 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 41 is a factor of 462. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 41 is not a factor of 462.

462 divided by 41 is 11.26829268 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 41 a factor of 462?" is no.
