How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 844,742,708?

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 844,742,708, 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.

1 844,742,708

Next, we take the number 844,742,708 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 844,742,708 ÷ 2 = 422,371,354

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 422,371,354 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 422,371,354 844,742,708

Now, we try dividing 844,742,708 by 3.

844,742,708 ÷ 3 = 281,580,902.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 281,580,902.6667 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 2 422,371,354 844,742,708

Let's try dividing by 4.

844,742,708 ÷ 4 = 211,185,677

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 211,185,677 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 4 211,185,677 422,371,354 844,742,708

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 844,742,708 ÷ 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:

12437741485,707,72111,415,44222,830,884211,185,677422,371,354844,742,708

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 844,742,708.
