471is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 471 are all the numbers between -471 and 471 , which divide 471 without leaving any remainder. Since 471 divided by -471 is an integer, -471 is a factor of 471 .
Since 471 divided by -471 is a whole number, -471 is a factor of 471
Since 471 divided by -157 is a whole number, -157 is a factor of 471
Since 471 divided by -3 is a whole number, -3 is a factor of 471
Since 471 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 471
Since 471 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 471
Since 471 divided by 3 is a whole number, 3 is a factor of 471
Since 471 divided by 157 is a whole number, 157 is a factor of 471
Multiples of 471 are all integers divisible by 471 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 471 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 471. The smallest multiples of 471 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 471 since 0 × 471 = 0
471 : in fact, 471 is a multiple of itself, since 471 is divisible by 471 (it was 471 / 471 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 471, the answer is: No, 471 is not a prime number.
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 471). 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 21.703 ). 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.
