Is 73 a factor of 636?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 73 is a factor of 636.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 636 and then seeing if 73 is one of them. The factors of 636 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 53, 106, 159, 212, 318, and 636. Looking at the list, you see that 73 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 73 a factor of 636?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 636 by 73 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 73 is a factor of 636. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 73 is not a factor of 636.

636 divided by 73 is 8.712328767 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 73 a factor of 636?" is no.
