How do I find the factor combinations of the number 162,453,096?

Unfortunately, there's not simple formula to identifying all of the factors of a number and it can be a tedious process when trying to identify the divisors of larger numbers. To find the factor combinations of the number 162,453,096, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.

Outside in Factoring

We start by creating a table and writing 1 on the left side and then the number we're trying to find the factors for on the right side in a table. Then, below that, write the numbers as a negative as well.

1 162,453,096
-1 -162,453,096

Why are the negative numbers included?

When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 162,453,096.

Example:
1 x 162,453,096 = 162,453,096
and
-1 x -162,453,096 = 162,453,096
Notice both answers equal 162,453,096

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 162,453,096 and divide it by 2:

162,453,096 ÷ 2 = 81,226,548

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 81,226,548 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 81,226,548 162,453,096
-1 -2 -81,226,548 -162,453,096

Now, we try dividing 162,453,096 by 3:

162,453,096 ÷ 3 = 54,151,032

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 54,151,032 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 3 54,151,032 81,226,548 162,453,096
-1 -2 -3 -54,151,032 -81,226,548 -162,453,096

Let's try dividing by 4:

162,453,096 ÷ 4 = 40,613,274

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 40,613,274 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 3 4 40,613,274 54,151,032 81,226,548 162,453,096
-1 -2 -3 -4 -40,613,274 -54,151,032 -81,226,548 162,453,096
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
