How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 315,036?

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 315,036, 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.

1 315,036

Next, we take the number 315,036 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 315,036 ÷ 2 = 157,518

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 157,518 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 157,518 315,036

Now, we try dividing 315,036 by 3.

315,036 ÷ 3 = 105,012

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 105,012 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 3 105,012 157,518 315,036

Let's try dividing by 4.

315,036 ÷ 4 = 78,759

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 78,759 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 78,759 105,012 157,518 315,036

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 315,036 ÷ 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:

12346912182736541082,9175,8348,75111,66817,50226,25335,00452,50678,759105,012157,518315,036

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 315,036.

Finally, for your reference, here are all of the divisor combinations of the number 315,036:

1 x 3150362 x 1575183 x 1050124 x 787596 x 525069 x 3500412 x 2625318 x 1750227 x 1166836 x 875154 x 5834108 x 2917
