Answer: All the next pairs of factors give as a result 350

  • 10 . 35
  • 25 . 14
  • 2 . 175
  • 5 . 70
  • 7 . 50

Explanation:

First of all, you have to divide the number by the minimum possible divisors until you get 1 as a result, to find all the factors you should multiply to get 350. For instance:

350 ÷ 2 = 175

175 ÷ 5 = 35

35 ÷ 5 = 7

7 ÷ 7 = 1

So you can use any of the results of multiplying the factors: 2 . 5 . 5 . 7 in any order by associating them to obtain just two factors :

  • (2 . 5) ( 5. 7) = 10 . 35 = 350
  • (5 . 5) (2 . 7) = 25 . 14 = 350
  • (2) (5 . 5 . 7) = 2 . 175 = 350
  • (5) (2 . 5 . 7) = 5 . 70 = 350
  • (7) (2 . 5 . 5) = 7 . 50 = 350
