How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 242,446,320?

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 242,446,320, 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.

1 242,446,320

Next, we take the number 242,446,320 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 242,446,320 ÷ 2 = 121,223,160

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 121,223,160 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 121,223,160 242,446,320

Now, we try dividing 242,446,320 by 3.

242,446,320 ÷ 3 = 80,815,440

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 80,815,440 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 80,815,440 121,223,160 242,446,320

Let's try dividing by 4.

242,446,320 ÷ 4 = 60,611,580

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 60,611,580 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 60,611,580 80,815,440 121,223,160 242,446,320

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 242,446,320 ÷ 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:
