How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 738,185,548?

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 738,185,548, 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.

1 738,185,548

Next, we take the number 738,185,548 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 738,185,548 ÷ 2 = 369,092,774

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 369,092,774 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 369,092,774 738,185,548

Now, we try dividing 738,185,548 by 3.

738,185,548 ÷ 3 = 246,061,849.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 246,061,849.3333 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 2 369,092,774 738,185,548

Let's try dividing by 4.

738,185,548 ÷ 4 = 184,546,387

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 184,546,387 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 4 184,546,387 369,092,774 738,185,548

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 738,185,548 ÷ 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:

1241,4992,9985,996123,113246,226492,452184,546,387369,092,774738,185,548
