How do I find the factor combinations of the number 60,644,628?

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 60,644,628, 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 60,644,628
-1 -60,644,628

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 60,644,628.

Example:
1 x 60,644,628 = 60,644,628
and
-1 x -60,644,628 = 60,644,628
Notice both answers equal 60,644,628

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 60,644,628 and divide it by 2:

60,644,628 ÷ 2 = 30,322,314

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 30,322,314 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 30,322,314 60,644,628
-1 -2 -30,322,314 -60,644,628

Now, we try dividing 60,644,628 by 3:

60,644,628 ÷ 3 = 20,214,876

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 20,214,876 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 20,214,876 30,322,314 60,644,628
-1 -2 -3 -20,214,876 -30,322,314 -60,644,628

Let's try dividing by 4:

60,644,628 ÷ 4 = 15,161,157

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 15,161,157 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 15,161,157 20,214,876 30,322,314 60,644,628
-1 -2 -3 -4 -15,161,157 -20,214,876 -30,322,314 60,644,628
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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