How to find the factors of 1044 yourself

Divide 1044 by each whole number starting from 1. Whenever the division leaves no remainder, both the divisor and the quotient are factors. You only need to test up to √104432.31, because every factor above that pairs with one below it.

1044 ÷ 1 = 1044
1044 ÷ 2 = 522
1044 ÷ 3 = 348
1044 ÷ 4 = 261
1044 ÷ 6 = 174
1044 ÷ 9 = 116
1044 ÷ 12 = 87
1044 ÷ 18 = 58
1044 ÷ 29 = 36

Reading both columns gives every factor: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 29, 36, 58, 87, 116, 174, 261, 348, 522, 1044. The factor calculator does this automatically for any number.
