Is 97 a factor of 739?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 97 is a factor of 739.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 739 and then seeing if 97 is one of them. The factors of 739 are 1 and 739. Looking at the list, you see that 97 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 97 a factor of 739?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 739 by 97 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 97 is a factor of 739. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 97 is not a factor of 739.

739 divided by 97 is 7.618556701 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 97 a factor of 739?" is no.
