How do I find the factor combinations of the number 83,825,076?

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 83,825,076, 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 83,825,076
-1 -83,825,076

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 83,825,076.

Example:
1 x 83,825,076 = 83,825,076
and
-1 x -83,825,076 = 83,825,076
Notice both answers equal 83,825,076

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 83,825,076 and divide it by 2:

83,825,076 ÷ 2 = 41,912,538

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 41,912,538 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 41,912,538 83,825,076
-1 -2 -41,912,538 -83,825,076

Now, we try dividing 83,825,076 by 3:

83,825,076 ÷ 3 = 27,941,692

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 27,941,692 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 27,941,692 41,912,538 83,825,076
-1 -2 -3 -27,941,692 -41,912,538 -83,825,076

Let's try dividing by 4:

83,825,076 ÷ 4 = 20,956,269

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 20,956,269 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 20,956,269 27,941,692 41,912,538 83,825,076
-1 -2 -3 -4 -20,956,269 -27,941,692 -41,912,538 83,825,076
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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