Question

HELP QUICK Jamie created a list of factors of 32. 32: 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 16, 32 which number should be removed from the list to make the list accurate? 1 6 16 32

Answer 1

6

Explanation:

The factors listed shows that 1 x 32 = 32, 2x 16= 32, 4 x 8= 32

BUT! When we get to 6 it does not have a number to multiply to that is a whole number. For example, 32/6= 5.333 which is not a whole number. Factors have to be whole numbers and no decimals! So, 6 should be removed from the list to make it accurate!

1: divide 32 by each factor

2:ensure that the answer is a whole number

4:You get your answer
