How do I find the factor combinations of the number 772,044?

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 772,044, 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.

1 772,044
-1 -772,044

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 772,044.

Example:
1 x 772,044 = 772,044
and
-1 x -772,044 = 772,044
Notice both answers equal 772,044

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 772,044 and divide it by 2:

772,044 ÷ 2 = 386,022

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 386,022 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 2 386,022 772,044
-1 -2 -386,022 -772,044

Now, we try dividing 772,044 by 3:

772,044 ÷ 3 = 257,348

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 257,348 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 3 257,348 386,022 772,044
-1 -2 -3 -257,348 -386,022 -772,044

Let's try dividing by 4:

772,044 ÷ 4 = 193,011

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 193,011 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 4 193,011 257,348 386,022 772,044
-1 -2 -3 -4 -193,011 -257,348 -386,022 772,044
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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