Finding Factors of Numbers with a TI-83 Calculator

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on using a TI-83 calculator to find the factors of a number, specifically asking if there's a built-in function or a program available. Users suggest searching for TI-83 factoring programs online, noting that many programs are designed for factoring trinomials rather than listing factors of a single number. A key concern is how to transfer these programs from a computer to the calculator. The conversation highlights the need for a simple solution to list factors, like inputting 200 and receiving outputs such as 1x200 and 2x100. Overall, users are seeking a straightforward method to achieve this functionality on their TI-83 calculators.

i got a ti-83 calculator, is there any way to put in a number and get the factors listed for me? like put in the number 200 and get it to return 1x200,2x100 and so on...


if not is there any program out there to enter into the calculator to make that happen

thanks

googling for ti 83 factoring program will find many factoring programs. I couldn't find the number field sieve tough

how do i get them from the computer to my calculator though? and most of them looked like a program that would factor trinomials and equations for you i just want to list factors of one number
 
The book claims the answer is that all the magnitudes are the same because "the gravitational force on the penguin is the same". I'm having trouble understanding this. I thought the buoyant force was equal to the weight of the fluid displaced. Weight depends on mass which depends on density. Therefore, due to the differing densities the buoyant force will be different in each case? Is this incorrect?
