Proper factors are all factors except for the number itself in this case 16
1, 2, 4, 8
Prime factorization for 16
16 = 2 x 8 <--- 2 is a prime number
Reduce 8 to the product of primes:
8 = 2 x 4 <--- 2 is a prime number
Reduce 4 to the product of primes:
4 = 2 x 2 <--- 2 is a prime number
Reduce 2 to the product of primes:
Show prime factorization:
2 x 2 x 2 x 2
Prime Power Decomposition
24
Show the sum of factors (divisors) for 16
1 + 16 + 2 + 8 + 4 = 31
Show the aliquot sum:
This is the sum of all the factors except the number
1 + 2 + 8 + 4 = 15
What is the Answer?
1, 2, 4, 8, 16
