Is 76 a factor of 956?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 76 is a factor of 956.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 956 and then seeing if 76 is one of them. The factors of 956 are 1, 2, 4, 239, 478, and 956. Looking at the list, you see that 76 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 76 a factor of 956?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 956 by 76 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 76 is a factor of 956. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 76 is not a factor of 956.

956 divided by 76 is 12.57894737 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 76 a factor of 956?" is no.
