Determine the number that 88 is divisible by from the choices provided?

3 answers

To determine which numbers 88 is divisible by, we can look at its factors. Factors of a number are integers that can divide that number without leaving a remainder.

The prime factorization of 88 can be derived by repeatedly dividing by prime numbers:

88 ÷ 2 = 44
44 ÷ 2 = 22
22 ÷ 2 = 11

Since 11 is a prime number, it cannot be divided any further. So, the prime factorization of 88 is 2 * 2 * 2 * 11, which is 2^3 * 11.

From this, we can determine that the following numbers are factors of 88:

- 1 (because every number is divisible by 1)
- 2 (as shown in the prime factorization)
- 4 (2^2)
- 8 (2^3)
- 11 (a prime number in the factorization)
- 22 (2 * 11)
- 44 (2^2 * 11)
- 88 (the number itself)

Without the choices provided, these are the numbers that 88 is divisible by. If your list of choices includes any of these numbers, then 88 is divisible by them. If your list of choices is different, compare them with this list to see if there's a match.
What the answer
To provide a specific answer, I would need the list of choices you have. Since I don't have the list, I can only tell you the factors of 88 as I previously mentioned. Please provide the specific choices so that I can determine which one(s) 88 is divisible by.
