Is 68 a factor of 999?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 68 is a factor of 999.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 999 and then seeing if 68 is one of them. The factors of 999 are 1, 3, 9, 27, 37, 111, 333, and 999. Looking at the list, you see that 68 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 68 a factor of 999?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 999 by 68 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 68 is a factor of 999. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 68 is not a factor of 999.

999 divided by 68 is 14.69117647 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 68 a factor of 999?" is no.
