How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 27,400,724?

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 27,400,724, 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 27,400,724

Next, we take the number 27,400,724 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 27,400,724 ÷ 2 = 13,700,362

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 13,700,362 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 13,700,362 27,400,724

Now, we try dividing 27,400,724 by 3.

27,400,724 ÷ 3 = 9,133,574.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 9,133,574.6667 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 13,700,362 27,400,724

Let's try dividing by 4.

27,400,724 ÷ 4 = 6,850,181

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 6,850,181 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 6,850,181 13,700,362 27,400,724

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 27,400,724 ÷ 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:

124132652526,9371,053,8742,107,7486,850,18113,700,36227,400,724

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 27,400,724.

Finally, for your reference, here are all of the divisor combinations of the number 27,400,724:

1 x 27400724
