What makes 104 interesting

  • 104 is a composite number, meaning it has more than two factors. It can be written as a product of smaller whole numbers in 4 different ways.
  • 104 is an abundant number: its proper factors sum to 106, which is 2 more than 104 itself.

How to find the factors of 104 yourself

Divide 104 by each whole number starting from 1. Whenever the division leaves no remainder, both the divisor and the quotient are factors. You only need to test up to √10410.20, because every factor above that pairs with one below it.

104 ÷ 1 = 104
104 ÷ 2 = 52
104 ÷ 4 = 26
104 ÷ 8 = 13

Reading both columns gives every factor: 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 26, 52, 104. The factor calculator does this automatically for any number.
