How to Calculate Factor Pairs of 3

Step-by-Step Process

To find all factor pairs of 3, we need to identify all integers that divide 3 evenly (with no remainder).

Start with the smallest factor, which is always 1
Check each integer from 1 up to the square root of 3 (v3 ≈ 1.73)
For each factor found, its corresponding pair is calculated by dividing 3 by that factor

Calculation Example

Let's work through finding the factor pairs of 3:

More About Deficient Numbers

Deficient Numbers

A deficient number is a positive integer for which the sum of its proper divisors is less than the number itself. The number 3 is deficient because the sum of its proper divisors (1) is less than 3.

All prime numbers are deficient since their only proper divisor is 1.
