How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 237,046,737?

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 237,046,737, 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.

1 237,046,737

Next, we take the number 237,046,737 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 237,046,737 ÷ 2 = 118,523,368.5

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 118,523,368.5 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 237,046,737

Now, we try dividing 237,046,737 by 3.

237,046,737 ÷ 3 = 79,015,579

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 79,015,579 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 3 79,015,579 237,046,737

Let's try dividing by 4.

237,046,737 ÷ 4 = 59,261,684.25

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 59,261,684.25 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 3 79,015,579 237,046,737

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 237,046,737 ÷ 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:

13672011,179,3373,538,01179,015,579237,046,737

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 237,046,737.
