How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 690,948?

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 690,948, 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.

1 690,948

Next, we take the number 690,948 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 690,948 ÷ 2 = 345,474

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 345,474 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 345,474 690,948

Now, we try dividing 690,948 by 3.

690,948 ÷ 3 = 230,316

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 230,316 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 3 230,316 345,474 690,948

Let's try dividing by 4.

690,948 ÷ 4 = 172,737

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 172,737 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 4 172,737 230,316 345,474 690,948

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 690,948 ÷ 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:

123469121718343651681021532043066121,1292,2583,3874,5166,77410,16113,54819,19320,32238,38640,64457,57976,772115,158172,737230,316345,474690,948

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 690,948.
