4.1 Factors and Divisibility
4.1.1. Connecting Factors and Multiples
4.1.1.1. Definition of factor and multiple: If a and b are whole numbers
and ab = c, then a is a factor of c, b is a factor of c, and c is a multiple
of both a and b.
4.1.1.2. Factors of 12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12 (finite set)
4.1.1.3. Multiples of 12: 12, 24, 36, 48, … (infinite set)
4.1.1.4. Finding factors and multiples
4.1.1.4.1. Multiples on your calculator
4.1.1.4.2. Factors on your calculator
4.1.1.4.3. Your turn p. 189: Do the practice and the reflect
4.1.1.4.4. Theorem: Factor Test – To find all of the factors of a number n,
test only those natural numbers that are no greater than the square
root of the number, n .
4.1.1.4.5. Your turn p. 191: Do the practice and the reflect
4.1.2. Defining Divisibility
4.1.2.1. Definition of Divisibility: For whole numbers a and b, a  0, a
divides b, written a|b, if and only if there is a whole number x so that ax
= b. Also, a is a divisor of b or b is divisible by a. Further, a | b means
that a does not divide b.
4.1.3. Techniques for Determining Divisibility
4.1.3.1. Theorem: Divisibility of Sums – For natural numbers a, b, and c,
if a|b and a|c, then a|(b + c)
4.1.3.2. Theorem: Divisibility of 2, 5, and 10 –
4.1.3.2.1. A natural number n is divisible by 2 if and only if its units digit is
0, 2, 4, 6, or 8.
4.1.3.2.2. A natural number n is divisible by 5 if and only if its units digit is 0 or 5.
4.1.3.2.3. A natural number n is divisible by 10 if and only if its units digit is 0.
4.1.3.3. Definition of Even and Odd Numbers:
4.1.3.3.1. A whole number is even if and only if it is divisible by 2.
4.1.3.3.2. A whole number is odd if and only if it is not divisible by 2.
4.1.3.4. Theorem: Divisibility Tests for 3 and 9 –
4.1.3.4.1. A natural number n is divisible by 3 if and only if the sum of its digits
is divisible by 3.
4.1.3.4.2. A natural number n is divisible by 9 if and only if the sum of its digits
is divisible by 9.
4.1.3.5. Theorem: Divisibility of Products – For natural numbers a, b, and
c, if a|c and b|c, and a and b have no common factors except 1, then
ab|c.
4.1.3.6. Theorem: A divisibility test for 6 – A natural number n is divisible
by 6 if and only if it is divisible by both 2 and 3.
4.1.3.7. Your turn p. 195: Do the practice and the reflect
4.1.3.8. Theorem: Divisibility tests for 4 and 8 –
4.1.3.8.1. A natural number n is divisible by 4 if and only if the number
represented by its last two digits is divisible by 4.
4.1.3.8.2. A natural number n is divisible by 8 if and only if the number
represented by its last three digits is divisible by 8.
4.1.3.9. Theorem: Divisibility tests for 7 and 11 –
4.1.3.9.1. A natural number n is divisible by 7 if and only if the number
formed by subtracting twice the last digit from the number formed
by all digits but the last is divisible by 7.
4.1.3.9.2. A natural number n is divisible by 11 if and only if the sum of the
digits in the even-powered places minus the sum of the digits in
the odd-powered places is divisible by 11.
4.1.3.10. Your turn p. 197: Do the practice and the reflect
4.1.3.11. Theorems: Divisibility – for natural numbers a, b, and c,
4.1.3.11.1. If a|b and a|c, then a|(b-c)
4.1.3.11.2. If a|b and c is any natural number, then a|bc
4.1.3.11.3. If a(b + c), and a|b, then a|c
4.1.3.11.4. If a|(b – c), and a|b, then a|c
4.1.4. Using Factors to Classify Natural Numbers
4.1.4.1. even numbers
4.1.4.2. odd numbers
4.1.4.3. squares
4.1.4.4. perfect number – sum of the factors less than the number equals
the number: 1 + 2 + 3 = 6, then 6 is a perfect number
4.1.4.5. deficient number – sum of the proper factors is less than the number
4.1.4.6. abundant number – sum of the proper factors is greater than the number
