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 300,114,367, 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 | 300,114,367 | |
| -1 | -300,114,367 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 300,114,367.
Example:
1 x 300,114,367 = 300,114,367
and
-1 x -300,114,367 = 300,114,367
Notice both answers equal 300,114,367
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 300,114,367 and divide it by 2:
300,114,367 ÷ 2 = 150,057,183.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 150,057,183.5 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 | 300,114,367 | |
| -1 | -300,114,367 |
Now, we try dividing 300,114,367 by 3:
300,114,367 ÷ 3 = 100,038,122.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 100,038,122.3333 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 | 300,114,367 | |
| -1 | -300,114,367 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
300,114,367 ÷ 4 = 75,028,591.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 75,028,591.75 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 | 300,114,367 | |
| -1 | 300,114,367 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 19 | 49 | 133 | 343 | 931 | 6,517 | 46,051 | 322,357 | 874,969 | 2,256,499 | 6,124,783 | 15,795,493 | 42,873,481 | 300,114,367 |
| -1 | -7 | -19 | -49 | -133 | -343 | -931 | -6,517 | -46,051 | -322,357 | -874,969 | -2,256,499 | -6,124,783 | -15,795,493 | -42,873,481 | -300,114,367 |
