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 176,012,333, 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 | 176,012,333 | |
| -1 | -176,012,333 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 176,012,333.
Example:
1 x 176,012,333 = 176,012,333
and
-1 x -176,012,333 = 176,012,333
Notice both answers equal 176,012,333
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 176,012,333 and divide it by 2:
176,012,333 ÷ 2 = 88,006,166.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 88,006,166.5 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 | 176,012,333 | |
| -1 | -176,012,333 |
Now, we try dividing 176,012,333 by 3:
176,012,333 ÷ 3 = 58,670,777.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 58,670,777.6667 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 | 176,012,333 | |
| -1 | -176,012,333 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
176,012,333 ÷ 4 = 44,003,083.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 44,003,083.25 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 | 176,012,333 | |
| -1 | 176,012,333 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 19 | 133 | 193 | 1,351 | 3,667 | 6,857 | 25,669 | 47,999 | 130,283 | 911,981 | 1,323,401 | 9,263,807 | 25,144,619 | 176,012,333 |
| -1 | -7 | -19 | -133 | -193 | -1,351 | -3,667 | -6,857 | -25,669 | -47,999 | -130,283 | -911,981 | -1,323,401 | -9,263,807 | -25,144,619 | -176,012,333 |
