Is 73 a factor of 846?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 73 is a factor of 846.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 846 and then seeing if 73 is one of them. The factors of 846 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 47, 94, 141, 282, 423, and 846. Looking at the list, you see that 73 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 73 a factor of 846?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 846 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 846. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 73 is not a factor of 846.

846 divided by 73 is 11.5890411 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 73 a factor of 846?" is no.
