To be the factors of a number, the factor number should exactly divide the number (with 0 remainder). For example,

The factor of 12 is 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12.

Example: Factors of Positive Number

// program to find the factors of an integer

// take input
let num = prompt('Enter a positive number: ');

console.log(`The factors of ${num} is:`);

// looping through 1 to num
for(let i = 1; i <= num; i++) {

    // check if number is a factor
    if(num % i == 0) {
        console.log(i);
    }
}

Output

Enter a positive number: 12
The factors of 12 is:
1
2
3
4
6
12

In the above program, the user is prompted to enter a positive integer.

• The for loop is used to loop through 1 to the number entered by the user.
• The modulus operator % is used to check if num is exactly divisible.
• In each iteration, a condition is checked if num is exactly divisible by i.

• if(num % i == 0)

• If the above condition is met, the number is displayed.
