How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 162,426,428?

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 162,426,428, 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.

1 162,426,428

Next, we take the number 162,426,428 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 162,426,428 ÷ 2 = 81,213,214

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 81,213,214 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 81,213,214 162,426,428

Now, we try dividing 162,426,428 by 3.

162,426,428 ÷ 3 = 54,142,142.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 54,142,142.6667 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 81,213,214 162,426,428

Let's try dividing by 4.

162,426,428 ÷ 4 = 40,606,607

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 40,606,607 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 40,606,607 81,213,214 162,426,428

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 162,426,428 ÷ 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:
