How do I find the factor combinations of the number 79,056,516?

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 79,056,516, 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 79,056,516
-1 -79,056,516

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 79,056,516.

Example:
1 x 79,056,516 = 79,056,516
and
-1 x -79,056,516 = 79,056,516
Notice both answers equal 79,056,516

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 79,056,516 and divide it by 2:

79,056,516 ÷ 2 = 39,528,258

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 39,528,258 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 39,528,258 79,056,516
-1 -2 -39,528,258 -79,056,516

Now, we try dividing 79,056,516 by 3:

79,056,516 ÷ 3 = 26,352,172

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 26,352,172 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 26,352,172 39,528,258 79,056,516
-1 -2 -3 -26,352,172 -39,528,258 -79,056,516

Let's try dividing by 4:

79,056,516 ÷ 4 = 19,764,129

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 19,764,129 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 19,764,129 26,352,172 39,528,258 79,056,516
-1 -2 -3 -4 -19,764,129 -26,352,172 -39,528,258 79,056,516
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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