Is 89 a factor of 408?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 89 is a factor of 408.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 408 and then seeing if 89 is one of them. The factors of 408 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 17, 24, 34, 51, 68, 102, 136, 204, and 408. Looking at the list, you see that 89 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 89 a factor of 408?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 408 by 89 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 89 is a factor of 408. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 89 is not a factor of 408.

408 divided by 89 is 4.584269663 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 89 a factor of 408?" is no.
