How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 124,472,672?

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 124,472,672, 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.

1 124,472,672

Next, we take the number 124,472,672 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 124,472,672 ÷ 2 = 62,236,336

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 62,236,336 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 62,236,336 124,472,672

Now, we try dividing 124,472,672 by 3.

124,472,672 ÷ 3 = 41,490,890.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 41,490,890.6667 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 62,236,336 124,472,672

Let's try dividing by 4.

124,472,672 ÷ 4 = 31,118,168

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 31,118,168 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 31,118,168 62,236,336 124,472,672

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 124,472,672 ÷ 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:

124816321072144288561,7123,42436,35372,706145,412290,824581,6481,163,2963,889,7717,779,54215,559,08431,118,16862,236,336124,472,672

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 124,472,672.
