What makes 320 interesting

  • 320 is a composite number, meaning it has more than two factors. It can be written as a product of smaller whole numbers in 7 different ways.
  • 320 is an abundant number: its proper factors sum to 442, which is 122 more than 320 itself.

How to find the factors of 320 yourself

Divide 320 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 √32017.89, because every factor above that pairs with one below it.

320 ÷ 1 = 320
320 ÷ 2 = 160
320 ÷ 4 = 80
320 ÷ 5 = 64
320 ÷ 8 = 40
320 ÷ 10 = 32
320 ÷ 16 = 20

Reading both columns gives every factor: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 32, 40, 64, 80, 160, 320. The factor calculator does this automatically for any number.
