Is 99 a factor of 401?

Here we will show you two different methods you can use to determine if 99 is a factor of 401.

The first method entails simply listing all factors of 401 and then seeing if 99 is one of them. The factors of 401 are 1 and 401. Looking at the list, you see that 99 is not on the list, and the answer to "Is 99 a factor of 401?" is therefore no.

For the second and perhaps easier method, we divide 401 by 99 to see if the quotient is a whole number or fractional number. If the quotient is a whole number, then 99 is a factor of 401. If the quotient is a fractional number, then 99 is not a factor of 401.

401 divided by 99 is 4.050505051 which is a fractional number. Thus, once again, the answer to "Is 99 a factor of 401?" is no.
