What makes 748 interesting

  • 748 is a composite number, meaning it has more than two factors. It can be written as a product of smaller whole numbers in 6 different ways.
  • 748 is an abundant number: its proper factors sum to 764, which is 16 more than 748 itself.
  • 748 has 3 distinct prime factors (2, 11, 17), which is why it has so many divisors.

How to find the factors of 748 yourself

Divide 748 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 √74827.35, because every factor above that pairs with one below it.

748 ÷ 1 = 748
748 ÷ 2 = 374
748 ÷ 4 = 187
748 ÷ 11 = 68
748 ÷ 17 = 44
748 ÷ 22 = 34

Reading both columns gives every factor: 1, 2, 4, 11, 17, 22, 34, 44, 68, 187, 374, 748. The factor calculator does this automatically for any number.
