How do I find the factor combinations of the number 60,369,888?

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 60,369,888, 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 60,369,888
-1 -60,369,888

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 60,369,888.

Example:
1 x 60,369,888 = 60,369,888
and
-1 x -60,369,888 = 60,369,888
Notice both answers equal 60,369,888

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 60,369,888 and divide it by 2:

60,369,888 ÷ 2 = 30,184,944

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 30,184,944 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 30,184,944 60,369,888
-1 -2 -30,184,944 -60,369,888

Now, we try dividing 60,369,888 by 3:

60,369,888 ÷ 3 = 20,123,296

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 20,123,296 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 20,123,296 30,184,944 60,369,888
-1 -2 -3 -20,123,296 -30,184,944 -60,369,888

Let's try dividing by 4:

60,369,888 ÷ 4 = 15,092,472

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 15,092,472 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 15,092,472 20,123,296 30,184,944 60,369,888
-1 -2 -3 -4 -15,092,472 -20,123,296 -30,184,944 60,369,888
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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