How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 150,015?

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 150,015, 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.

1 150,015

Next, we take the number 150,015 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 150,015 ÷ 2 = 75,007.5

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 75,007.5 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 150,015

Now, we try dividing 150,015 by 3.

150,015 ÷ 3 = 50,005

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 50,005 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 3 50,005 150,015

Let's try dividing by 4.

150,015 ÷ 4 = 37,503.75

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 37,503.75 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 3 50,005 150,015

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 150,015 ÷ 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:

13515731372193654116851,0952,05510,00130,00350,005150,015

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 150,015.

Finally, for your reference, here are all of the divisor combinations of the number 150,015:

1 x 1500153 x 500055 x 3000315 x 1000173 x 2055137 x 1095219 x 685365 x 411
