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 200,202,301, 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 | 200,202,301 | |
| -1 | -200,202,301 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 200,202,301.
Example:
1 x 200,202,301 = 200,202,301
and
-1 x -200,202,301 = 200,202,301
Notice both answers equal 200,202,301
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 200,202,301 and divide it by 2:
200,202,301 ÷ 2 = 100,101,150.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 100,101,150.5 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 | 200,202,301 | |
| -1 | -200,202,301 |
Now, we try dividing 200,202,301 by 3:
200,202,301 ÷ 3 = 66,734,100.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 66,734,100.3333 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 | 200,202,301 | |
| -1 | -200,202,301 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
200,202,301 ÷ 4 = 50,050,575.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 50,050,575.25 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 | 200,202,301 | |
| -1 | 200,202,301 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 37 | 101 | 169 | 317 | 481 | 1,313 | 3,737 | 4,121 | 6,253 | 11,729 | 17,069 | 32,017 | 48,581 | 53,573 | 152,477 | 416,221 | 631,553 | 1,184,629 | 1,982,201 | 5,410,873 | 15,400,177 | 200,202,301 |
| -1 | -13 | -37 | -101 | -169 | -317 | -481 | -1,313 | -3,737 | -4,121 | -6,253 | -11,729 | -17,069 | -32,017 | -48,581 | -53,573 | -152,477 | -416,221 | -631,553 | -1,184,629 | -1,982,201 | -5,410,873 | -15,400,177 | -200,202,301 |
