How do I find the factors or divisors of the number 7,788?

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 7,788, 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 7,788

Next, we take the number 7,788 and divide it by 2.

In this case, 7,788 ÷ 2 = 3,894

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 3,894 are factors. Write them in the table below. If the quotient is not a whole number, skip to the next test.

1 2 3,894 7,788

Now, we try dividing 7,788 by 3.

7,788 ÷ 3 = 2,596

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 2,596 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 2,596 3,894 7,788

Let's try dividing by 4.

7,788 ÷ 4 = 1,947

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 1,947 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 1,947 2,596 3,894 7,788

We keep dividing by the next largest number, in this case the number 5. If the quotient of 7,788 ÷ 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:

12346111222334459661181321772363546497081,2981,9472,5963,8947,788

All of the numbers in the table above can be evenly divided into the number 7,788.

Finally, for your reference, here are all of the divisor combinations of the number 7,788:

1 x 77882 x 38943 x 25964 x 19476 x 129811 x 70812 x 64922 x 35433 x 23644 x 17759 x 13266 x 118
