How do I find the factor combinations of the number 623,616?

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 623,616, 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.

1 623,616
-1 -623,616

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 623,616.

Example:
1 x 623,616 = 623,616
and
-1 x -623,616 = 623,616
Notice both answers equal 623,616

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 623,616 and divide it by 2:

623,616 ÷ 2 = 311,808

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 311,808 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 2 311,808 623,616
-1 -2 -311,808 -623,616

Now, we try dividing 623,616 by 3:

623,616 ÷ 3 = 207,872

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 207,872 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 3 207,872 311,808 623,616
-1 -2 -3 -207,872 -311,808 -623,616

Let's try dividing by 4:

623,616 ÷ 4 = 155,904

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 155,904 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 4 155,904 207,872 311,808 623,616
-1 -2 -3 -4 -155,904 -207,872 -311,808 623,616
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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