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 335,233,525, 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 | 335,233,525 | |
| -1 | -335,233,525 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 335,233,525.
Example:
1 x 335,233,525 = 335,233,525
and
-1 x -335,233,525 = 335,233,525
Notice both answers equal 335,233,525
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 335,233,525 and divide it by 2:
335,233,525 ÷ 2 = 167,616,762.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 167,616,762.5 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 | 335,233,525 | |
| -1 | -335,233,525 |
Now, we try dividing 335,233,525 by 3:
335,233,525 ÷ 3 = 111,744,508.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 111,744,508.3333 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 | 335,233,525 | |
| -1 | -335,233,525 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
335,233,525 ÷ 4 = 83,808,381.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 83,808,381.25 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 | 335,233,525 | |
| -1 | 335,233,525 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 25 | 55 | 121 | 275 | 605 | 3,025 | 110,821 | 554,105 | 1,219,031 | 2,770,525 | 6,095,155 | 13,409,341 | 30,475,775 | 67,046,705 | 335,233,525 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -25 | -55 | -121 | -275 | -605 | -3,025 | -110,821 | -554,105 | -1,219,031 | -2,770,525 | -6,095,155 | -13,409,341 | -30,475,775 | -67,046,705 | -335,233,525 |
