How do I find the factor combinations of the number 761,044,176?

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 761,044,176, 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.

1 761,044,176
-1 -761,044,176

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 761,044,176.

Example:
1 x 761,044,176 = 761,044,176
and
-1 x -761,044,176 = 761,044,176
Notice both answers equal 761,044,176

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 761,044,176 and divide it by 2:

761,044,176 ÷ 2 = 380,522,088

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 380,522,088 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 2 380,522,088 761,044,176
-1 -2 -380,522,088 -761,044,176

Now, we try dividing 761,044,176 by 3:

761,044,176 ÷ 3 = 253,681,392

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 253,681,392 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 3 253,681,392 380,522,088 761,044,176
-1 -2 -3 -253,681,392 -380,522,088 -761,044,176

Let's try dividing by 4:

761,044,176 ÷ 4 = 190,261,044

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 190,261,044 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 4 190,261,044 253,681,392 380,522,088 761,044,176
-1 -2 -3 -4 -190,261,044 -253,681,392 -380,522,088 761,044,176
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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