How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 788,668,588?

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 788,668,588, 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.

1 788,668,588

Next, we take the number 788,668,588 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 788,668,588 ÷ 2 = 394,334,294

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 394,334,294 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 394,334,294 788,668,588

Now, we try dividing 788,668,588 by 3.

788,668,588 ÷ 3 = 262,889,529.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 262,889,529.3333 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 2 394,334,294 788,668,588

Let's try dividing by 4.

788,668,588 ÷ 4 = 197,167,147

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 197,167,147 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 4 197,167,147 394,334,294 788,668,588

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 788,668,588 ÷ 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:
