Finding the factors of a number involves identifying all the numbers that divide evenly into it without leaving a remainder. Let's explore the factors of 147 and express them in pairs.

First, we need to find all the factors of 147. We can do this by systematically checking numbers:

• 1 divides into 147, resulting in 147 (pair: 1 and 147)
• 3 divides into 147, resulting in 49 (pair: 3 and 49)
• 7 divides into 147, resulting in 21 (pair: 7 and 21)
• 21 divides into 147, resulting in 7 (pair: 21 and 7 - already listed)
• 49 divides into 147, resulting in 3 (pair: 49 and 3 - already listed)
• 147 divides into 147, resulting in 1 (pair: 147 and 1 - already listed)

Therefore, the complete list of factors of 147 is 1, 3, 7, 21, 49, and 147.

Presenting the Factors in Pairs:

We can present these factors in pairs, showing that each pair multiplies to equal 147:

• 1 x 147 = 147
• 3 x 49 = 147
• 7 x 21 = 147

This demonstrates all the factor pairs of 147. Note that the number itself (147) and 1 are always factors, and they form a factor pair.
