Some tricks:
Of course you know that anything is divisible by 1.
All even numbers are divisible by 2, to give a whole number.
Anytime you can add all of the digits (1+8+7=16...1+6=7) and the one digit that you get is divisible by 3, then the original number is divisible by 3.
4 isn't much help...
Anything ending in a 5 or 0 can be divided by 5 to give a whole number.
187 isn't divisible by 2, 3, or 5.
You could look at the seven since it's in the ones place and think about what numbers in your multiplication table ends in 7.... 27 comes to mind. Try dividing 187 by 9 or by 3 (of course this won't work based on the trick for the factor 3).
77 is another number ending in 7. Hmmm... 11x7 = 77, that would leave another 110 to account for and 11x10 = 110.
So, 11x17 (the 7 plus the 10) = 187. Since these two numbers, 11 and 17, are prime numbers and not divisible by anything of use. I'd say that's your answer.

The factors are 1 & 187, and 11 & 17.
If the number was actually prime, it would still have two factors, being itself (187) and 1.

(17)*(11) = 187
so 1, 11 and 17 are factors of 187

Ya, 11 and 17. 11 *17 = 187.
