Proper factors are all factors except for the number itself in this case 12
1, 2, 3, 4, 6
Prime factorization for 12
12 = 2 x 6 <--- 2 is a prime number
Reduce 6 to the product of primes:
6 = 3 x 2 <--- 3 is a prime number
Reduce 2 to the product of primes:
Show prime factorization:
2 x 2 x 3
Prime Power Decomposition
22 x 3
Show the sum of factors (divisors) for 12
1 + 12 + 2 + 6 + 3 + 4 = 28
Show the aliquot sum:
This is the sum of all the factors except the number
1 + 2 + 6 + 3 + 4 = 16
What is the Answer?
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
