Is 64 a factor of 27?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 64 is a factor of 27.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 27 and then seeing if 64 is one of them. The factors of 27 are 1, 3, 9, and 27. Looking at the list, you see that 64 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 64 a factor of 27?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 27 by 64 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 64 is a factor of 27. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 64 is not a factor of 27.

27 divided by 64 is 0.421875 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 64 a factor of 27?" is no.
