How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 864,520?

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 864,520, 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.

1 864,520

Next, we take the number 864,520 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 864,520 ÷ 2 = 432,260

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 432,260 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 432,260 864,520

Now, we try dividing 864,520 by 3.

864,520 ÷ 3 = 288,173.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 288,173.3333 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 2 432,260 864,520

Let's try dividing by 4.

864,520 ÷ 4 = 216,130

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 216,130 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 4 216,130 432,260 864,520

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 864,520 ÷ 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:

1245810204021,61343,22686,452108,065172,904216,130432,260864,520

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 864,520.
