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 divisors of larger numbers. To find the factor combinations of the number 134,362,205, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.
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. Then, below that, write the numbers as a negative as well.
| 1 | 134,362,205 | |
| -1 | -134,362,205 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 134,362,205.
Example:
1 x 134,362,205 = 134,362,205
and
-1 x -134,362,205 = 134,362,205
Notice both answers equal 134,362,205
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 134,362,205 and divide it by 2:
134,362,205 ÷ 2 = 67,181,102.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 67,181,102.5 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 134,362,205 | |
| -1 | -134,362,205 |
Now, we try dividing 134,362,205 by 3:
134,362,205 ÷ 3 = 44,787,401.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 44,787,401.6667 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 134,362,205 | |
| -1 | -134,362,205 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
134,362,205 ÷ 4 = 33,590,551.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 33,590,551.25 are factors. In this case, the quotient is not a whole number. Don't write anything down and try the next divisor.
Here is what our table should look like at this step:
| 1 | 134,362,205 | |
| -1 | 134,362,205 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 23 | 95 | 115 | 437 | 2,185 | 61,493 | 307,465 | 1,168,367 | 1,414,339 | 5,841,835 | 7,071,695 | 26,872,441 | 134,362,205 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -23 | -95 | -115 | -437 | -2,185 | -61,493 | -307,465 | -1,168,367 | -1,414,339 | -5,841,835 | -7,071,695 | -26,872,441 | -134,362,205 |
