How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 212,421,204?

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 212,421,204, 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.

1 212,421,204

Next, we take the number 212,421,204 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 212,421,204 ÷ 2 = 106,210,602

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 106,210,602 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 106,210,602 212,421,204

Now, we try dividing 212,421,204 by 3.

212,421,204 ÷ 3 = 70,807,068

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 70,807,068 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 70,807,068 106,210,602 212,421,204

Let's try dividing by 4.

212,421,204 ÷ 4 = 53,105,301

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 53,105,301 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 53,105,301 70,807,068 106,210,602 212,421,204

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 212,421,204 ÷ 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:
