Is 85 a factor of 535?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 85 is a factor of 535.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 535 and then seeing if 85 is one of them. The factors of 535 are 1, 5, 107, and 535. Looking at the list, you see that 85 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 85 a factor of 535?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 535 by 85 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 85 is a factor of 535. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 85 is not a factor of 535.

535 divided by 85 is 6.294117647 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 85 a factor of 535?" is no.
