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 223,060,315, 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 | 223,060,315 | |
| -1 | -223,060,315 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 223,060,315.
Example:
1 x 223,060,315 = 223,060,315
and
-1 x -223,060,315 = 223,060,315
Notice both answers equal 223,060,315
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 223,060,315 and divide it by 2:
223,060,315 ÷ 2 = 111,530,157.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 111,530,157.5 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 | 223,060,315 | |
| -1 | -223,060,315 |
Now, we try dividing 223,060,315 by 3:
223,060,315 ÷ 3 = 74,353,438.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 74,353,438.3333 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 | 223,060,315 | |
| -1 | -223,060,315 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
223,060,315 ÷ 4 = 55,765,078.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 55,765,078.75 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 | 223,060,315 | |
| -1 | 223,060,315 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 17 | 29 | 85 | 145 | 289 | 493 | 1,445 | 2,465 | 5,323 | 8,381 | 26,615 | 41,905 | 90,491 | 154,367 | 452,455 | 771,835 | 1,538,347 | 2,624,239 | 7,691,735 | 13,121,195 | 44,612,063 | 223,060,315 |
| -1 | -5 | -17 | -29 | -85 | -145 | -289 | -493 | -1,445 | -2,465 | -5,323 | -8,381 | -26,615 | -41,905 | -90,491 | -154,367 | -452,455 | -771,835 | -1,538,347 | -2,624,239 | -7,691,735 | -13,121,195 | -44,612,063 | -223,060,315 |
