How do I find the factor combinations of the number 84,713,472?

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 84,713,472, 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 84,713,472
-1 -84,713,472

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 84,713,472.

Example:
1 x 84,713,472 = 84,713,472
and
-1 x -84,713,472 = 84,713,472
Notice both answers equal 84,713,472

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 84,713,472 and divide it by 2:

84,713,472 ÷ 2 = 42,356,736

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 42,356,736 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 42,356,736 84,713,472
-1 -2 -42,356,736 -84,713,472

Now, we try dividing 84,713,472 by 3:

84,713,472 ÷ 3 = 28,237,824

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 28,237,824 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 28,237,824 42,356,736 84,713,472
-1 -2 -3 -28,237,824 -42,356,736 -84,713,472

Let's try dividing by 4:

84,713,472 ÷ 4 = 21,178,368

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 21,178,368 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 21,178,368 28,237,824 42,356,736 84,713,472
-1 -2 -3 -4 -21,178,368 -28,237,824 -42,356,736 84,713,472
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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