How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 431,600?

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 431,600, 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.

1 431,600

Next, we take the number 431,600 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 431,600 ÷ 2 = 215,800

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 215,800 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 215,800 431,600

Now, we try dividing 431,600 by 3.

431,600 ÷ 3 = 143,866.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 143,866.6667 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 2 215,800 431,600

Let's try dividing by 4.

431,600 ÷ 4 = 107,900

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 107,900 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 4 107,900 215,800 431,600

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 431,600 ÷ 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:
