How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 10,032?

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 10,032, 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 10,032

Next, we take the number 10,032 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 10,032 ÷ 2 = 5,016

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 5,016 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 5,016 10,032

Now, we try dividing 10,032 by 3.

10,032 ÷ 3 = 3,344

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 3,344 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 3,344 5,016 10,032

Let's try dividing by 4.

10,032 ÷ 4 = 2,508

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 2,508 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 2,508 3,344 5,016 10,032

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 10,032 ÷ 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:

12346811121619222433384448576676881141321521762092282643044184565286278369121,2541,6722,5083,3445,01610,032

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 10,032.

Finally, for your reference, here are all of the divisor combinations of the number 10,032:

1 x 100322 x 50163 x 33444 x 25086 x 16728 x 125411 x 91212 x 83616 x 62719 x 52822 x 45624 x 41833 x 30438 x 26444 x 22848 x 20957 x 17666 x 15276 x 13288 x 114
