How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 162,715,180?

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 162,715,180, 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.

1 162,715,180

Next, we take the number 162,715,180 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 162,715,180 ÷ 2 = 81,357,590

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 81,357,590 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 81,357,590 162,715,180

Now, we try dividing 162,715,180 by 3.

162,715,180 ÷ 3 = 54,238,393.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 54,238,393.3333 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 81,357,590 162,715,180

Let's try dividing by 4.

162,715,180 ÷ 4 = 40,678,795

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 40,678,795 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 40,678,795 81,357,590 162,715,180

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 162,715,180 ÷ 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:

124510208,135,75916,271,51832,543,03640,678,79581,357,590162,715,180

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 162,715,180.
