How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 320,231,046?

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 320,231,046, 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.

1 320,231,046

Next, we take the number 320,231,046 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 320,231,046 ÷ 2 = 160,115,523

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 160,115,523 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 160,115,523 320,231,046

Now, we try dividing 320,231,046 by 3.

320,231,046 ÷ 3 = 106,743,682

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 106,743,682 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 3 106,743,682 160,115,523 320,231,046

Let's try dividing by 4.

320,231,046 ÷ 4 = 80,057,761.5

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 80,057,761.5 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 3 106,743,682 160,115,523 320,231,046

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 320,231,046 ÷ 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:

12362,0534,1066,15912,31825,99751,99477,991155,98253,371,841106,743,682160,115,523320,231,046

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 320,231,046.

Finally, for your reference, here are all of the divisor combinations of the number 320,231,046:
