How do I find the factor combinations of the number 90,816?

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 90,816, 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 90,816
-1 -90,816

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 90,816.

Example:
1 x 90,816 = 90,816
and
-1 x -90,816 = 90,816
Notice both answers equal 90,816

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 90,816 and divide it by 2:

90,816 ÷ 2 = 45,408

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 45,408 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 45,408 90,816
-1 -2 -45,408 -90,816

Now, we try dividing 90,816 by 3:

90,816 ÷ 3 = 30,272

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 30,272 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 30,272 45,408 90,816
-1 -2 -3 -30,272 -45,408 -90,816

Let's try dividing by 4:

90,816 ÷ 4 = 22,704

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 22,704 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 22,704 30,272 45,408 90,816
-1 -2 -3 -4 -22,704 -30,272 -45,408 90,816
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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