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 303,805,733, 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 | 303,805,733 | |
| -1 | -303,805,733 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 303,805,733.
Example:
1 x 303,805,733 = 303,805,733
and
-1 x -303,805,733 = 303,805,733
Notice both answers equal 303,805,733
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 303,805,733 and divide it by 2:
303,805,733 ÷ 2 = 151,902,866.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 151,902,866.5 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 | 303,805,733 | |
| -1 | -303,805,733 |
Now, we try dividing 303,805,733 by 3:
303,805,733 ÷ 3 = 101,268,577.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 101,268,577.6667 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 | 303,805,733 | |
| -1 | -303,805,733 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
303,805,733 ÷ 4 = 75,951,433.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 75,951,433.25 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 | 303,805,733 | |
| -1 | 303,805,733 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 49 | 77 | 343 | 539 | 2,401 | 3,773 | 11,503 | 26,411 | 80,521 | 126,533 | 563,647 | 885,731 | 3,945,529 | 6,200,117 | 27,618,703 | 43,400,819 | 303,805,733 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -49 | -77 | -343 | -539 | -2,401 | -3,773 | -11,503 | -26,411 | -80,521 | -126,533 | -563,647 | -885,731 | -3,945,529 | -6,200,117 | -27,618,703 | -43,400,819 | -303,805,733 |
