How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 41,790?

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 41,790, 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 41,790

Next, we take the number 41,790 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 41,790 ÷ 2 = 20,895

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 20,895 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 20,895 41,790

Now, we try dividing 41,790 by 3.

41,790 ÷ 3 = 13,930

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 13,930 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 13,930 20,895 41,790

Let's try dividing by 4.

41,790 ÷ 4 = 10,447.5

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 10,447.5 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 13,930 20,895 41,790

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 41,790 ÷ 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:

12356710141521303542701051992103985979951,1941,3931,9902,7862,9854,1795,9706,9658,35813,93020,89541,790

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 41,790.
