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 302,234,405, 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 | 302,234,405 | |
| -1 | -302,234,405 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 302,234,405.
Example:
1 x 302,234,405 = 302,234,405
and
-1 x -302,234,405 = 302,234,405
Notice both answers equal 302,234,405
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 302,234,405 and divide it by 2:
302,234,405 ÷ 2 = 151,117,202.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 151,117,202.5 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 | 302,234,405 | |
| -1 | -302,234,405 |
Now, we try dividing 302,234,405 by 3:
302,234,405 ÷ 3 = 100,744,801.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 100,744,801.6667 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 | 302,234,405 | |
| -1 | -302,234,405 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
302,234,405 ÷ 4 = 75,558,601.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 75,558,601.25 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 | 302,234,405 | |
| -1 | 302,234,405 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 55 | 121 | 605 | 607 | 823 | 3,035 | 4,115 | 6,677 | 9,053 | 33,385 | 45,265 | 73,447 | 99,583 | 367,235 | 497,915 | 499,561 | 2,497,805 | 5,495,171 | 27,475,855 | 60,446,881 | 302,234,405 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -55 | -121 | -605 | -607 | -823 | -3,035 | -4,115 | -6,677 | -9,053 | -33,385 | -45,265 | -73,447 | -99,583 | -367,235 | -497,915 | -499,561 | -2,497,805 | -5,495,171 | -27,475,855 | -60,446,881 | -302,234,405 |
