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 183,632,245, 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 | 183,632,245 | |
| -1 | -183,632,245 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 183,632,245.
Example:
1 x 183,632,245 = 183,632,245
and
-1 x -183,632,245 = 183,632,245
Notice both answers equal 183,632,245
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 183,632,245 and divide it by 2:
183,632,245 ÷ 2 = 91,816,122.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 91,816,122.5 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 | 183,632,245 | |
| -1 | -183,632,245 |
Now, we try dividing 183,632,245 by 3:
183,632,245 ÷ 3 = 61,210,748.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 61,210,748.3333 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 | 183,632,245 | |
| -1 | -183,632,245 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
183,632,245 ÷ 4 = 45,908,061.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 45,908,061.25 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 | 183,632,245 | |
| -1 | 183,632,245 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 95 | 211 | 1,055 | 4,009 | 9,161 | 20,045 | 45,805 | 174,059 | 870,295 | 1,932,971 | 9,664,855 | 36,726,449 | 183,632,245 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -95 | -211 | -1,055 | -4,009 | -9,161 | -20,045 | -45,805 | -174,059 | -870,295 | -1,932,971 | -9,664,855 | -36,726,449 | -183,632,245 |
