How do I find the factor combinations of the number 167,141,376?

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 167,141,376, 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.

1 167,141,376
-1 -167,141,376

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 167,141,376.

Example:
1 x 167,141,376 = 167,141,376
and
-1 x -167,141,376 = 167,141,376
Notice both answers equal 167,141,376

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 167,141,376 and divide it by 2:

167,141,376 ÷ 2 = 83,570,688

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 83,570,688 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 83,570,688 167,141,376
-1 -2 -83,570,688 -167,141,376

Now, we try dividing 167,141,376 by 3:

167,141,376 ÷ 3 = 55,713,792

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 55,713,792 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 55,713,792 83,570,688 167,141,376
-1 -2 -3 -55,713,792 -83,570,688 -167,141,376

Let's try dividing by 4:

167,141,376 ÷ 4 = 41,785,344

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 41,785,344 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 41,785,344 55,713,792 83,570,688 167,141,376
-1 -2 -3 -4 -41,785,344 -55,713,792 -83,570,688 167,141,376
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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