You can put this solution on YOUR website! What are the factors of 875
Step 1. Looks like 875 is divisible by 25 or 5*5 (Think of quarters like $8.75): 875/(5*5)=35
Step 2. Take quotient of 35 and find its factors. Looks like again 5 comes into play: 35/5=7
Check 5*5*5*7=875...true statement
Step 3. ANSWER: Factors of 875 are 5, 5, 5, and 7
I hope the above steps were helpful.
