What is the greatest perfect square that is a factor of the number 244 and how to solve it?

Our first step would be to find out all the factors of 244

Since this is an even number, we divide 2 we get the factors as 244/2 = 122

Next we again divide by 2 we get the factor as 122/2 = 61

We cannot go down any further since 61 is a prime number

Since we divided by 2, 2 is itself a factor.

Lastly, we divided by 2, twice; hence 2*2 = 4 is also a factor

The factors of 244 are 2,4,61 and 122

Out of 2,4,61 and 122 the only perfect square is 4

So, greatest perfect square that is a factor of the number 244 should be 4

Therefore, the answer is : 4

graph b

step-by-step explanation:

one solution- graph a (clear intercepting point.)

no solution- graph b (they're parallel, there will never be a point of interception.)

infinite solutions- graph c (all points intercept.)
