Is 66 a factor of 68?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 66 is a factor of 68.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 68 and then seeing if 66 is one of them. The factors of 68 are 1, 2, 4, 17, 34, and 68. Looking at the list, you see that 66 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 66 a factor of 68?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 68 by 66 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 66 is a factor of 68. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 66 is not a factor of 68.

68 divided by 66 is 1.03030303 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 66 a factor of 68?" is no.
