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 170,833,355, 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 | 170,833,355 | |
| -1 | -170,833,355 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 170,833,355.
Example:
1 x 170,833,355 = 170,833,355
and
-1 x -170,833,355 = 170,833,355
Notice both answers equal 170,833,355
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 170,833,355 and divide it by 2:
170,833,355 ÷ 2 = 85,416,677.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 85,416,677.5 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 | 170,833,355 | |
| -1 | -170,833,355 |
Now, we try dividing 170,833,355 by 3:
170,833,355 ÷ 3 = 56,944,451.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 56,944,451.6667 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 | 170,833,355 | |
| -1 | -170,833,355 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
170,833,355 ÷ 4 = 42,708,338.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 42,708,338.75 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 | 170,833,355 | |
| -1 | 170,833,355 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 11 | 35 | 49 | 55 | 77 | 245 | 385 | 539 | 2,695 | 63,389 | 316,945 | 443,723 | 697,279 | 2,218,615 | 3,106,061 | 3,486,395 | 4,880,953 | 15,530,305 | 24,404,765 | 34,166,671 | 170,833,355 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -11 | -35 | -49 | -55 | -77 | -245 | -385 | -539 | -2,695 | -63,389 | -316,945 | -443,723 | -697,279 | -2,218,615 | -3,106,061 | -3,486,395 | -4,880,953 | -15,530,305 | -24,404,765 | -34,166,671 | -170,833,355 |
