How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 42,415,062?

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 42,415,062, 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 42,415,062

Next, we take the number 42,415,062 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 42,415,062 ÷ 2 = 21,207,531

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 21,207,531 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 21,207,531 42,415,062

Now, we try dividing 42,415,062 by 3.

42,415,062 ÷ 3 = 14,138,354

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 14,138,354 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 14,138,354 21,207,531 42,415,062

Let's try dividing by 4.

42,415,062 ÷ 4 = 10,603,765.5

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 10,603,765.5 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 14,138,354 21,207,531 42,415,062

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 42,415,062 ÷ 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:

12362635267891,57826,87953,75880,637161,2747,069,17714,138,35421,207,53142,415,062

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 42,415,062.

Finally, for your reference, here are all of the divisor combinations of the number 42,415,062:

1 x 424150622 x 212075313 x 141383546 x 7069177263 x 161274526 x 80637789 x 537581578 x 26879
