Is 75 a factor of 493?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 75 is a factor of 493.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 493 and then seeing if 75 is one of them. The factors of 493 are 1, 17, 29, and 493. Looking at the list, you see that 75 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 75 a factor of 493?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 493 by 75 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 75 is a factor of 493. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 75 is not a factor of 493.

493 divided by 75 is 6.573333333 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 75 a factor of 493?" is no.
