How to find the factors of 882 yourself

Divide 882 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 √88229.70, because every factor above that pairs with one below it.

882 ÷ 1 = 882
882 ÷ 2 = 441
882 ÷ 3 = 294
882 ÷ 6 = 147
882 ÷ 7 = 126
882 ÷ 9 = 98
882 ÷ 14 = 63
882 ÷ 18 = 49
882 ÷ 21 = 42

Reading both columns gives every factor: 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 14, 18, 21, 42, 49, 63, 98, 126, 147, 294, 441, 882. The factor calculator does this automatically for any number.
