Is 60 a factor of 222?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 60 is a factor of 222.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 222 and then seeing if 60 is one of them. The factors of 222 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 37, 74, 111, and 222. Looking at the list, you see that 60 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 60 a factor of 222?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 222 by 60 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 60 is a factor of 222. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 60 is not a factor of 222.

222 divided by 60 is 3.7 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 60 a factor of 222?" is no.
