How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 432,140,428?

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 432,140,428, 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.

1 432,140,428

Next, we take the number 432,140,428 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 432,140,428 ÷ 2 = 216,070,214

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 216,070,214 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 216,070,214 432,140,428

Now, we try dividing 432,140,428 by 3.

432,140,428 ÷ 3 = 144,046,809.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 144,046,809.3333 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 2 216,070,214 432,140,428

Let's try dividing by 4.

432,140,428 ÷ 4 = 108,035,107

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 108,035,107 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 4 108,035,107 216,070,214 432,140,428

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 432,140,428 ÷ 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:

124791583161,367,5332,735,0665,470,132108,035,107216,070,214432,140,428

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 432,140,428.
