Is 53 a factor of 371?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 53 is a factor of 371.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 371 and then seeing if 53 is one of them. The factors of 371 are 1, 7, 53, and 371. Looking at the list, you see that 53 is on the list, and the answer to "Is 53 a factor of 371?" is therefore yes.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 371 by 53 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 53 is a factor of 371. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 53 is not a factor of 371.

371 divided by 53 is 7 which is a whole number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 53 a factor of 371?" is yes.
