When factor pairs begin repaying, I have found all the pairs for a number.
How much did the factor pairs repay you?
repeating?
yes
out of control spell check?

To find all the factor pairs for a given number, you can follow these steps:
1. Start with the number for which you want to find the factor pairs.
2. Begin by dividing the number by 1 and record the quotient. This is a factor pair.
3. Incrementally increase the divisor and divide the number by each subsequent divisor. If the result is a whole number (an integer), record the divisor and the corresponding quotient as another factor pair.
4. Continue this process until you reach the square root of the original number. The square root is the highest divisor you need to check because any factors beyond this point would have already appeared in earlier pairs.
5. Remember that every factor pair has two factors, which can be in a different order (e.g., (1,12) and (12,1) are the same pair).
For example:
Let's find all the factor pairs for the number 18:
1. Start with the number 18.
2. Divide 18 by 1: 18 ÷ 1 = 18, so (1,18) is a factor pair.
3. Divide 18 by 2: 18 ÷ 2 = 9, so (2,9) is another factor pair.
4. Divide 18 by 3: 18 ÷ 3 = 6, so (3,6) is another factor pair.
5. The square root of 18 is approximately 4.24. Since we've already checked the factors up to 3, there are no additional factor pairs.
Therefore, all the factor pairs for 18 are (1,18), (2,9), and (3,6).
