Is 84 a factor of 724?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 84 is a factor of 724.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 724 and then seeing if 84 is one of them. The factors of 724 are 1, 2, 4, 181, 362, and 724. Looking at the list, you see that 84 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 84 a factor of 724?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 724 by 84 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 84 is a factor of 724. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 84 is not a factor of 724.

724 divided by 84 is 8.619047619 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 84 a factor of 724?" is no.
