How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 240,138,404?

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 240,138,404, 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.

1 240,138,404

Next, we take the number 240,138,404 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 240,138,404 ÷ 2 = 120,069,202

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 120,069,202 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 120,069,202 240,138,404

Now, we try dividing 240,138,404 by 3.

240,138,404 ÷ 3 = 80,046,134.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 80,046,134.6667 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 2 120,069,202 240,138,404

Let's try dividing by 4.

240,138,404 ÷ 4 = 60,034,601

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 60,034,601 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 60,034,601 120,069,202 240,138,404

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 240,138,404 ÷ 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:

1241122445,457,69110,915,38221,830,76460,034,601120,069,202240,138,404

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 240,138,404.
