How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 46,048,068?

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 46,048,068, 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 46,048,068

Next, we take the number 46,048,068 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 46,048,068 ÷ 2 = 23,024,034

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 23,024,034 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 23,024,034 46,048,068

Now, we try dividing 46,048,068 by 3.

46,048,068 ÷ 3 = 15,349,356

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 15,349,356 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 15,349,356 23,024,034 46,048,068

Let's try dividing by 4.

46,048,068 ÷ 4 = 11,512,017

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 11,512,017 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 11,512,017 15,349,356 23,024,034 46,048,068

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 46,048,068 ÷ 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:
