How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 316,321,608?

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 316,321,608, 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.

1 316,321,608

Next, we take the number 316,321,608 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 316,321,608 ÷ 2 = 158,160,804

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 158,160,804 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 158,160,804 316,321,608

Now, we try dividing 316,321,608 by 3.

316,321,608 ÷ 3 = 105,440,536

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 105,440,536 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 3 105,440,536 158,160,804 316,321,608

Let's try dividing by 4.

316,321,608 ÷ 4 = 79,080,402

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 79,080,402 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 79,080,402 105,440,536 158,160,804 316,321,608

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 316,321,608 ÷ 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:

123468122413,180,06726,360,13439,540,20152,720,26879,080,402105,440,536158,160,804316,321,608

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 316,321,608.

Finally, for your reference, here are all of the divisor combinations of the number 316,321,608:
