1481is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 1481 are all the numbers between -1481 and 1481 , which divide 1481 without leaving any remainder. Since 1481 divided by -1481 is an integer, -1481 is a factor of 1481 .
Since 1481 divided by -1481 is a whole number, -1481 is a factor of 1481
Since 1481 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 1481
Since 1481 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 1481
Multiples of 1481 are all integers divisible by 1481 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 1481 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 1481. The smallest multiples of 1481 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 1481 since 0 × 1481 = 0
1481 : in fact, 1481 is a multiple of itself, since 1481 is divisible by 1481 (it was 1481 / 1481 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
2962: in fact, 2962 = 1481 × 2
4443: in fact, 4443 = 1481 × 3
5924: in fact, 5924 = 1481 × 4
7405: in fact, 7405 = 1481 × 5
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 1481, the answer is: yes, 1481 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (1481).
To know the primality of an integer, we can use several algorithms. The most naive is to try all divisors below the number you want to know if it is prime (in our case 1481). We can already eliminate even numbers bigger than 2 (then 4 , 6 , 8 ...). Besides, we can stop at the square root of the number in question (here 38.484 ). Historically, the Eratosthenes screen (which dates back to Antiquity) uses this technique relatively effectively.
More modern techniques include the Atkin screen, probabilistic tests, or the cyclotomic test.
