How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 801,696?

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 801,696, 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.

1 801,696

Next, we take the number 801,696 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 801,696 ÷ 2 = 400,848

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 400,848 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 400,848 801,696

Now, we try dividing 801,696 by 3.

801,696 ÷ 3 = 267,232

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 267,232 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 3 267,232 400,848 801,696

Let's try dividing by 4.

801,696 ÷ 4 = 200,424

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 200,424 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 4 200,424 267,232 400,848 801,696

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 801,696 ÷ 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:

12346781214162124283242485684961121682243366721,1932,3863,5794,7727,1588,3519,54414,31616,70219,08825,05328,63233,40438,17650,10657,26466,808100,212114,528133,616200,424267,232400,848801,696

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 801,696.

Finally, for your reference, here are all of the divisor combinations of the number 801,696:
