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 176,002,375, 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 | 176,002,375 | |
| -1 | -176,002,375 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 176,002,375.
Example:
1 x 176,002,375 = 176,002,375
and
-1 x -176,002,375 = 176,002,375
Notice both answers equal 176,002,375
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 176,002,375 and divide it by 2:
176,002,375 ÷ 2 = 88,001,187.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 88,001,187.5 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 | 176,002,375 | |
| -1 | -176,002,375 |
Now, we try dividing 176,002,375 by 3:
176,002,375 ÷ 3 = 58,667,458.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 58,667,458.3333 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 | 176,002,375 | |
| -1 | -176,002,375 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
176,002,375 ÷ 4 = 44,000,593.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 44,000,593.75 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 | 176,002,375 | |
| -1 | 176,002,375 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 25 | 125 | 233 | 1,165 | 5,825 | 6,043 | 29,125 | 30,215 | 151,075 | 755,375 | 1,408,019 | 7,040,095 | 35,200,475 | 176,002,375 |
| -1 | -5 | -25 | -125 | -233 | -1,165 | -5,825 | -6,043 | -29,125 | -30,215 | -151,075 | -755,375 | -1,408,019 | -7,040,095 | -35,200,475 | -176,002,375 |
