Is 87 a factor of 783?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 87 is a factor of 783.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 783 and then seeing if 87 is one of them. The factors of 783 are 1, 3, 9, 27, 29, 87, 261, and 783. Looking at the list, you see that 87 is on the list, and the answer to "Is 87 a factor of 783?" is therefore yes.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 783 by 87 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 87 is a factor of 783. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 87 is not a factor of 783.

783 divided by 87 is 9 which is a whole number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 87 a factor of 783?" is yes.
