How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 542,513,332?

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 542,513,332, 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.

1 542,513,332

Next, we take the number 542,513,332 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 542,513,332 ÷ 2 = 271,256,666

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 271,256,666 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 271,256,666 542,513,332

Now, we try dividing 542,513,332 by 3.

542,513,332 ÷ 3 = 180,837,777.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 180,837,777.3333 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 2 271,256,666 542,513,332

Let's try dividing by 4.

542,513,332 ÷ 4 = 135,628,333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 135,628,333 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 4 135,628,333 271,256,666 542,513,332

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 542,513,332 ÷ 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:
