How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 38,240,992?

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 38,240,992, 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 38,240,992

Next, we take the number 38,240,992 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 38,240,992 ÷ 2 = 19,120,496

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 19,120,496 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 19,120,496 38,240,992

Now, we try dividing 38,240,992 by 3.

38,240,992 ÷ 3 = 12,746,997.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 12,746,997.3333 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 19,120,496 38,240,992

Let's try dividing by 4.

38,240,992 ÷ 4 = 9,560,248

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 9,560,248 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 9,560,248 19,120,496 38,240,992

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 38,240,992 ÷ 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:

124816321,195,0312,390,0624,780,1249,560,24819,120,49638,240,992

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 38,240,992.
