How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 1,257,120?

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 1,257,120, 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 1,257,120

Next, we take the number 1,257,120 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 1,257,120 ÷ 2 = 628,560

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 628,560 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 628,560 1,257,120

Now, we try dividing 1,257,120 by 3.

1,257,120 ÷ 3 = 419,040

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 419,040 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 3 419,040 628,560 1,257,120

Let's try dividing by 4.

1,257,120 ÷ 4 = 314,280

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 314,280 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 3 4 314,280 419,040 628,560 1,257,120

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 1,257,120 ÷ 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:
