Please help me with this math question. I am asked to show my work but I don't know how to solve the problem to show my work. The question is: Choose the correct list of factors of the number 8. Again, I have to show my work with this question. Please help thank you.

Just keep dividing 8 by prime numbers until you can't do it any more.

8 = 2*4 = 2*(2*2) = 2*2*2

the answer is:


1,2,4,8

jkjk lmao i just wanted 2 say sumthin srry :/

Nichole's answer is correct if all they want is the integers that can be divided into 8 evenly.

14.5 ft to meters

Of course! I can help you solve this math question and show your work.

To find the factors of a number, we need to identify the numbers that divide evenly into that number without leaving a remainder. In this case, we need to find the factors of the number 8.

One way to find the factors is to divide 8 by different numbers and check if the division is exact. We start by dividing 8 by 1:

8 ÷ 1 = 8

Since the division is exact, 1 is a factor of 8. We also need to consider if 8 is a factor of itself:

8 ÷ 8 = 1

So, 8 is a factor of 8 as well.

Now we can continue checking if any other numbers divide evenly into 8. We try dividing by 2:

8 ÷ 2 = 4

Again, the division is exact, so 2 is a factor of 8. We also need to consider if 4 is a factor of 8:

8 ÷ 4 = 2

So, 4 is a factor of 8 as well.

Finally, we try dividing 8 by 3 and any higher numbers. However, because 8 is a small number, it is clear that 3 and higher numbers will not divide evenly into 8 without leaving a remainder.

Therefore, the list of factors of 8 are: 1, 2, 4, and 8.

To show your work, you can write down the division calculations and highlight the factors:

8 ÷ 1 = 8 (1 is a factor)
8 ÷ 2 = 4 (2 is a factor)
8 ÷ 3 = 2 (3 is not a factor)
8 ÷ 4 = 2 (4 is a factor)
8 ÷ 5 = 1 (5 is not a factor)
8 ÷ 6 = 1 (6 is not a factor)
8 ÷ 7 = 1 (7 is not a factor)
8 ÷ 8 = 1 (8 is a factor)

So, the factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8.
