How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 36,214,432?

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 36,214,432, 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 36,214,432

Next, we take the number 36,214,432 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 36,214,432 ÷ 2 = 18,107,216

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 18,107,216 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 18,107,216 36,214,432

Now, we try dividing 36,214,432 by 3.

36,214,432 ÷ 3 = 12,071,477.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 12,071,477.3333 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 18,107,216 36,214,432

Let's try dividing by 4.

36,214,432 ÷ 4 = 9,053,608

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 9,053,608 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 9,053,608 18,107,216 36,214,432

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 36,214,432 ÷ 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:
