How do I find the factor combinations of the number 211,301,128?

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 211,301,128, 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.

1 211,301,128
-1 -211,301,128

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 211,301,128.

Example:
1 x 211,301,128 = 211,301,128
and
-1 x -211,301,128 = 211,301,128
Notice both answers equal 211,301,128

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 211,301,128 and divide it by 2:

211,301,128 ÷ 2 = 105,650,564

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 105,650,564 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 2 105,650,564 211,301,128
-1 -2 -105,650,564 -211,301,128

Now, we try dividing 211,301,128 by 3:

211,301,128 ÷ 3 = 70,433,709.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 70,433,709.3333 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.

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

1 2 105,650,564 211,301,128
-1 -2 -105,650,564 -211,301,128

Let's try dividing by 4:

211,301,128 ÷ 4 = 52,825,282

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 52,825,282 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 4 52,825,282 105,650,564 211,301,128
-1 -2 -4 -52,825,282 -105,650,564 211,301,128
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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