How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 40,272,612?

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 40,272,612, 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 40,272,612

Next, we take the number 40,272,612 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 40,272,612 ÷ 2 = 20,136,306

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 20,136,306 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 20,136,306 40,272,612

Now, we try dividing 40,272,612 by 3.

40,272,612 ÷ 3 = 13,424,204

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 13,424,204 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 13,424,204 20,136,306 40,272,612

Let's try dividing by 4.

40,272,612 ÷ 4 = 10,068,153

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 10,068,153 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 10,068,153 13,424,204 20,136,306 40,272,612

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 40,272,612 ÷ 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:

12346123,356,0516,712,10210,068,15313,424,20420,136,30640,272,612

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 40,272,612.
