How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 79,080?

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 79,080, 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 79,080

Next, we take the number 79,080 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 79,080 ÷ 2 = 39,540

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 39,540 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 39,540 79,080

Now, we try dividing 79,080 by 3.

79,080 ÷ 3 = 26,360

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 26,360 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 26,360 39,540 79,080

Let's try dividing by 4.

79,080 ÷ 4 = 19,770

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 19,770 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 19,770 26,360 39,540 79,080

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 79,080 ÷ 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:

123456810121520243040601206591,3181,9772,6363,2953,9545,2726,5907,9089,88513,18015,81619,77026,36039,54079,080

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 79,080.

Finally, for your reference, here are all of the divisor combinations of the number 79,080:

1 x 790802 x 395403 x 263604 x 197705 x 158166 x 131808 x 988510 x 790812 x 659015 x 527220 x 395424 x 329530 x 263640 x 197760 x 1318120 x 659
