How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 39,040,940?

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 39,040,940, 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 39,040,940

Next, we take the number 39,040,940 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 39,040,940 ÷ 2 = 19,520,470

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 19,520,470 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 19,520,470 39,040,940

Now, we try dividing 39,040,940 by 3.

39,040,940 ÷ 3 = 13,013,646.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 13,013,646.6667 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 19,520,470 39,040,940

Let's try dividing by 4.

39,040,940 ÷ 4 = 9,760,235

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 9,760,235 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 9,760,235 19,520,470 39,040,940

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 39,040,940 ÷ 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:

124510201,952,0473,904,0947,808,1889,760,23519,520,47039,040,940

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 39,040,940.
