Question

The product of two factors is 2,000. If one factor is 40, the other factor is Choose .

Answer 1

To find the other factor when one factor is given as 40, you can use the equation:

\[
\text{factor 1} \times \text{factor 2} = \text{product}
\]

Given:

- \(\text{factor 1} = 40\)
- \(\text{product} = 2000\)

You can find the other factor (\(\text{factor 2}\)) by rearranging the equation:

\[
\text{factor 2} = \frac{\text{product}}{\text{factor 1}}
\]

Now, substitute the values:

\[
\text{factor 2} = \frac{2000}{40}
\]

Calculating this gives:

\[
\text{factor 2} = 50
\]

Therefore, the other factor is **50**.
