How do I find the factor combinations of the number 723,088,812?

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 723,088,812, 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.

1 723,088,812
-1 -723,088,812

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 723,088,812.

Example:
1 x 723,088,812 = 723,088,812
and
-1 x -723,088,812 = 723,088,812
Notice both answers equal 723,088,812

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 723,088,812 and divide it by 2:

723,088,812 ÷ 2 = 361,544,406

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 361,544,406 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 2 361,544,406 723,088,812
-1 -2 -361,544,406 -723,088,812

Now, we try dividing 723,088,812 by 3:

723,088,812 ÷ 3 = 241,029,604

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 241,029,604 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 3 241,029,604 361,544,406 723,088,812
-1 -2 -3 -241,029,604 -361,544,406 -723,088,812

Let's try dividing by 4:

723,088,812 ÷ 4 = 180,772,203

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 180,772,203 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 4 180,772,203 241,029,604 361,544,406 723,088,812
-1 -2 -3 -4 -180,772,203 -241,029,604 -361,544,406 723,088,812
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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