Is 82 a factor of 601?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 82 is a factor of 601.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 601 and then seeing if 82 is one of them. The factors of 601 are 1 and 601. Looking at the list, you see that 82 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 82 a factor of 601?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 601 by 82 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 82 is a factor of 601. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 82 is not a factor of 601.

601 divided by 82 is 7.329268293 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 82 a factor of 601?" is no.
