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:
| Factor Check | Division | Result | Factor Pair |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 ÷ 1 | 3.00 | Integer result | (1, 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.
