How do I find the factor combinations of the number 41,239,296?

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 41,239,296, 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 41,239,296
-1 -41,239,296

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 41,239,296.

Example:
1 x 41,239,296 = 41,239,296
and
-1 x -41,239,296 = 41,239,296
Notice both answers equal 41,239,296

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 41,239,296 and divide it by 2:

41,239,296 ÷ 2 = 20,619,648

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 20,619,648 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 20,619,648 41,239,296
-1 -2 -20,619,648 -41,239,296

Now, we try dividing 41,239,296 by 3:

41,239,296 ÷ 3 = 13,746,432

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 13,746,432 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 13,746,432 20,619,648 41,239,296
-1 -2 -3 -13,746,432 -20,619,648 -41,239,296

Let's try dividing by 4:

41,239,296 ÷ 4 = 10,309,824

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 10,309,824 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 10,309,824 13,746,432 20,619,648 41,239,296
-1 -2 -3 -4 -10,309,824 -13,746,432 -20,619,648 41,239,296
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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