How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 123,420,356?

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 factors of larger numbers. To find the factors of the number 123,420,356, it is easiest to start from the outside in. Here's what we mean:

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.

1 123,420,356

Next, we take the number 123,420,356 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 123,420,356 ÷ 2 = 61,710,178

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 61,710,178 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 61,710,178 123,420,356

Now, we try dividing 123,420,356 by 3.

123,420,356 ÷ 3 = 41,140,118.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 41,140,118.6667 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 61,710,178 123,420,356

Let's try dividing by 4.

123,420,356 ÷ 4 = 30,855,089

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 30,855,089 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 4 30,855,089 61,710,178 123,420,356

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 123,420,356 ÷ 5 is a whole number, then 5 and your quotient are factors of the number.


Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.


What you will end up with is this table:
