How do I find the factor combinations of the number 64,257,456?

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 64,257,456, 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 64,257,456
-1 -64,257,456

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 64,257,456.

Example:
1 x 64,257,456 = 64,257,456
and
-1 x -64,257,456 = 64,257,456
Notice both answers equal 64,257,456

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 64,257,456 and divide it by 2:

64,257,456 ÷ 2 = 32,128,728

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 32,128,728 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 32,128,728 64,257,456
-1 -2 -32,128,728 -64,257,456

Now, we try dividing 64,257,456 by 3:

64,257,456 ÷ 3 = 21,419,152

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 21,419,152 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 21,419,152 32,128,728 64,257,456
-1 -2 -3 -21,419,152 -32,128,728 -64,257,456

Let's try dividing by 4:

64,257,456 ÷ 4 = 16,064,364

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 16,064,364 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 16,064,364 21,419,152 32,128,728 64,257,456
-1 -2 -3 -4 -16,064,364 -21,419,152 -32,128,728 64,257,456
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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