How do you break apart the factor 12?

See how many numbers multiples together can give you 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a factor you need to break up the number (12) and see how many numbers can be multiplied to get 12.

First you need to go through all numbers 1 - 12 and see if they can be multiplied by each other to get 12.

1 - Factor (1 * 12 = 12)

2 - Factor (2 * 6 = 12)

3 - Factor (3 * 4 = 12

4 - Factor (4 * 3 = 12)

5 - Not a factor

6 - Factor (6 * 2 = 12)

7 - Not a factor

8 - Not a factor

9 - Not a factor

10 - Not a factor

11 - Not a factor

12 - Factor (12 * 1 = 12)

You can break down 12 by thinking what and what can give you 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

4 times 3 = 12 divided by 4 or 3

6 times 2 = 12 divided by 2 or 6
