Is 48 a factor of 577?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 48 is a factor of 577.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 577 and then seeing if 48 is one of them. The factors of 577 are 1 and 577. Looking at the list, you see that 48 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 48 a factor of 577?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 577 by 48 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 48 is a factor of 577. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 48 is not a factor of 577.

577 divided by 48 is 12.02083333 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 48 a factor of 577?" is no.
