How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 221,023,104?

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 221,023,104, 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.

1 221,023,104

Next, we take the number 221,023,104 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 221,023,104 ÷ 2 = 110,511,552

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 110,511,552 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 110,511,552 221,023,104

Now, we try dividing 221,023,104 by 3.

221,023,104 ÷ 3 = 73,674,368

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 73,674,368 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 73,674,368 110,511,552 221,023,104

Let's try dividing by 4.

221,023,104 ÷ 4 = 55,255,776

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 55,255,776 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 55,255,776 73,674,368 110,511,552 221,023,104

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 221,023,104 ÷ 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:

12346812162432486496128192384575,5811,151,1621,726,7432,302,3243,453,4864,604,6486,906,9729,209,29613,813,94418,418,59227,627,88836,837,18455,255,77673,674,368110,511,552221,023,104

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 221,023,104.
