How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 312,431,504?

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 312,431,504, 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.

1 312,431,504

Next, we take the number 312,431,504 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 312,431,504 ÷ 2 = 156,215,752

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 156,215,752 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 156,215,752 312,431,504

Now, we try dividing 312,431,504 by 3.

312,431,504 ÷ 3 = 104,143,834.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 104,143,834.6667 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 2 156,215,752 312,431,504

Let's try dividing by 4.

312,431,504 ÷ 4 = 78,107,876

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 78,107,876 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 78,107,876 156,215,752 312,431,504

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 312,431,504 ÷ 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:
