Is 5 a factor of 66?


Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 5 is a factor of 66.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 66 and then seeing if 5 is one of them. The factors of 66 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 22, 33, and 66. Looking at the list, you see that 5 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 5 a factor of 66?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 66 by 5 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 5 is a factor of 66. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 5 is not a factor of 66.

66 divided by 5 is 13.2 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 5 a factor of 66?" is no.
