First year college student here, majoring in CS and I slacked off in math throughout school. This channel is helping me catch up so much its a lifesaver
you used to be my old math teacher in CSI back in like 2018-2019 you were mad cool and would always tell us to watch the ads I don't think this video had nowhere near this many views at the time. good luck bro and keep it up
Great to hear from you and I appreciate your kind words, Anthony! I enjoyed that time at CSI, I can't believe how fast the years are going. What career path did you choose?!
@@vinteachesmath i graduated with a soc/ant degree but that never was my passion I'm a sales guy so I have always been interested in shoes and have been reselling full time and enjoy making connections with people
Thank you so much sir, this was immensely useful for me. Even as a 12th grader taking Maths, I never actually thought there was a way where you could find all factors of a number, but I had to learn. And no video on UA-cam was as clear as yours, not only that, but also, very easy to do. Unlike these complex methods on UA-cam I found that I honestly could not understand at all or memorize. But this, this is it! Thank you again. (This would've been so useful to learn when I was younger, too. But at least I know now. )
I am happy to help out the next generation. This trick was casually mentioned in one of my college classes and I remember thinking how I wish I had this back in the day. I wish your the 10 year old the best with this new trick!
Hello Vin, Currently I'm studying in class 5th and tomorrow is my Maths test so I searched that easiest way to find all factors of a number and after watching this video, I think there will be no doubt in my mind that how to list factors of a number and learnt few new thing from here that exponents and all that thing. It was really helpful no mater this video is uploaded 7 years ago.
I found this technique in a college combinatorics textbook. It was mentioned somewhat casually but I thought it was very interesting. I remember thinking that this topic should be taught in every elementary school!
Introductory Combinatorics Book by Richard A. Brualdi, 5th edition. I believe there is a pdf copy of the book somewhere online. This is the book I used when I took combinatorics in college!
Glad you think so! I remember learning this counting factors technique in a college math class and thinking this would be great to learn in the earlier grade levels.
Please help! As stated in another comment, this does not work for #36 (or at least I think it doesnt). The trick tells me that there should be 9 factors when I can find 10. Please explain if and where I am going wrong
Joycinha Borges The 9 factors of 36 are 1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18, 36 Six shows up twice put we only count it once when we list all the factors. Factors will repeat with all perfect square numbers.
Hey man , well it seems i struggle with your trick i think you should have done a bit more examples in 2:22 because of noobs like me so anyways :P Factors of 28 so 28 then 14 x 2 prime is 2 so we continue with 14 2x7 is 14 then we bring down the 2 so what's left is : 2 x 7 x 2 Now referring to your trick the first 2 has 1 exponent then 7 has 1 exponent then again number 2 has 1 exponent right? What is wrong in this line because then i add 2x2x2 and is 8 but the factors of 28 is not 8 but 6 so any help is appreciated.
You need to group the 2s: (2x2) x 7 = 28 The 2 has an exponent of 2 and the 7 has an exponent of 1, so it becomes 3 x 2 = 6 The 6 factors are then 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28.

Wonderful explanation, sir. Is there a name for the 'trick' formula, so I can look up how it's derived?
I found this technique in a college combinatorics textbook. It was mentioned somewhat casually but I thought it was very interesting. I remember thinking that this topic should be taught in every elementary school!
Thats a key right there
This Is sooooo Gonna help me in GRE preparation
Thanks that was so helpful👍
Glad to hear it! Best wishes with the rest of the school year.
Hello other struggling math students
The struggle is part of the game! That means you care.
@@vinteachesmath Thank you! This video helped out a lot as well
hello
Thank You Very Much Sir for putting such informative video. May God Bless you so much happiness and knowledge!!!
Thank you so much for the trick
I'm happy to share this trick! Thanks for watching
Love this!! But I tried this method with the number 48 and it said 18 but I only got 10 factors? I don't know if something wrong or I messed up..
48 = 2^4 * 3^1.. So do (4+1)*(1+1).. Then there are 10 factors of 48.
Thx for this trick it helped me win a math competition
Congratulations on winning the math competition! That is a huge accomplishment! I am glad this trick was useful.
Nice and easy method. Thanks
Most welcome!
Thank you so much man
Happy to help! This is a fun topic in math. I wish I knew this trick in 5th grade!
Hi, I just wanted to know the proof for this trick..... Where can I find it?

amazing educator much thanks
Glad you think so!
I don't really get the trick. How did you get 2 times 3 times 2 from those exponents?
He added 1 to each of them
Very helpful video!!! 😯
It was very helpful
Glad it helped!
Very helpful vdo ☺️☺️
Thank you 😊 bro 👍 it did really help me
Welcome 😊
@@vinteachesmath will you please share us tricks on cube root and square root
Amazing and realy helpfull so much !
Glad you think so!
So helpful! Thank you so much!!
I am glad the video helped! This trick should be taught in every school. It definitely makes it easier to verify that you have found all the factors.
super good method
I dont know english even then i understood trick because of your teaching so thanks
wow i've trying to relate it for a long time but with ur help its done so thank u
Glad it helped!
@@vinteachesmath yeah thanks
thank you so much!
Thank you after watching this video I clear prime factors concept.
Glad it helped and thanks for supporting one of my original videos!

vinteachesmath thank you. Yes I finally worked it out when I counted the facrors and when I counted 6 twice!
hello sir pls when will be your next class
Mr. "D" indeed
Wow nice idea
Glad you liked it!
Wow!!! Awesome
Glad you like it!
Thank you
You're welcome! I am doing Math HW Help/Test Prep live streams on Wednesdays at 8:30pm eastern time.
thanks for the great trick!!
Hey man , well it seems i struggle with your trick i think you should have done a bit more examples in 2:22 because of noobs like me so anyways :P
Factors of 28
so
28
then 14 x 2
prime is 2 so we continue with 14
2x7 is 14 then we bring down the 2 so what's left is :
2 x 7 x 2
Now referring to your trick
the first 2 has 1 exponent then 7 has 1 exponent then again number 2 has 1 exponent right?
What is wrong in this line because then i add 2x2x2 and is 8 but the factors of 28 is not 8 but 6
so any help is appreciated.
You need to group the 2s:
(2x2) x 7 = 28
The 2 has an exponent of 2 and the 7 has an exponent of 1, so it becomes 3 x 2 = 6
The 6 factors are then 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28.
Trick is very good. It gives different approach
I love this trick! Thanks for watching.
wOw dude you r soo talented!!! Super Helping stuff!
Happy to help! Thanks for watching.
Wow I tried it now and I got the answer easier than my brother did thanks
Good work kid
Thx bro
In my school they call it the factor tree method
cool math:)
Glad you think so! I love this trick!
Sir, this trick can be apply on all numbers ?😕💭💭
Any whole number greater than 1... Basically, any number that has prime factorization.
Thank you!
😊 THANKS
You're welcome 😊
2:00 Can someone please explain why this trick works this way? Thanks.
Thanks you helped me a lot and I mean it
IS IT RAINING IN OUTSIDE?
Probably, my old sound quality was mediocre at best. My newest videos are done with a quality microphone!
Oh i thought it was raining outside because it sounds similar to rain , anyway nice trick , keep making more videos , keep up the good work 🤗
Superr math trick
Thanks dude 👍
Extreamly.. Hyperbolically.. Thermodynamically.. Helpful.. 😶😋😁
