How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 842,328?

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 842,328, 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.

1 842,328

Next, we take the number 842,328 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 842,328 ÷ 2 = 421,164

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 421,164 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 421,164 842,328

Now, we try dividing 842,328 by 3.

842,328 ÷ 3 = 280,776

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 280,776 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 3 280,776 421,164 842,328

Let's try dividing by 4.

842,328 ÷ 4 = 210,582

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 210,582 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 4 210,582 280,776 421,164 842,328

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 842,328 ÷ 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:

1234689121824367211,69923,39835,09746,79670,19493,592105,291140,388210,582280,776421,164842,328

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 842,328.

Finally, for your reference, here are all of the divisor combinations of the number 842,328:

1 x 8423282 x 4211643 x 2807764 x 2105826 x 1403888 x 1052919 x 9359212 x 7019418 x 4679624 x 3509736 x 2339872 x 11699
