How do I find the factor combinations of the number 29,376,192?

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 29,376,192, 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 29,376,192
-1 -29,376,192

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 29,376,192.

Example:
1 x 29,376,192 = 29,376,192
and
-1 x -29,376,192 = 29,376,192
Notice both answers equal 29,376,192

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 29,376,192 and divide it by 2:

29,376,192 ÷ 2 = 14,688,096

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 14,688,096 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 14,688,096 29,376,192
-1 -2 -14,688,096 -29,376,192

Now, we try dividing 29,376,192 by 3:

29,376,192 ÷ 3 = 9,792,064

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 9,792,064 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 9,792,064 14,688,096 29,376,192
-1 -2 -3 -9,792,064 -14,688,096 -29,376,192

Let's try dividing by 4:

29,376,192 ÷ 4 = 7,344,048

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 7,344,048 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 7,344,048 9,792,064 14,688,096 29,376,192
-1 -2 -3 -4 -7,344,048 -9,792,064 -14,688,096 29,376,192
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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