How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 736,323,740?

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 736,323,740, 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.

1 736,323,740

Next, we take the number 736,323,740 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 736,323,740 ÷ 2 = 368,161,870

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 368,161,870 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 368,161,870 736,323,740

Now, we try dividing 736,323,740 by 3.

736,323,740 ÷ 3 = 245,441,246.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 245,441,246.6667 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 2 368,161,870 736,323,740

Let's try dividing by 4.

736,323,740 ÷ 4 = 184,080,935

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 184,080,935 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 4 184,080,935 368,161,870 736,323,740

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 736,323,740 ÷ 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:

1245102036,816,18773,632,374147,264,748184,080,935368,161,870736,323,740

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 736,323,740.
