How do I find the factor combinations of the number 548,352?

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 548,352, 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.

1 548,352
-1 -548,352

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 548,352.

Example:
1 x 548,352 = 548,352
and
-1 x -548,352 = 548,352
Notice both answers equal 548,352

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 548,352 and divide it by 2:

548,352 ÷ 2 = 274,176

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 274,176 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 2 274,176 548,352
-1 -2 -274,176 -548,352

Now, we try dividing 548,352 by 3:

548,352 ÷ 3 = 182,784

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 182,784 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 3 182,784 274,176 548,352
-1 -2 -3 -182,784 -274,176 -548,352

Let's try dividing by 4:

548,352 ÷ 4 = 137,088

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 137,088 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 4 137,088 182,784 274,176 548,352
-1 -2 -3 -4 -137,088 -182,784 -274,176 548,352
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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