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 335,526,113, 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 | 335,526,113 | |
| -1 | -335,526,113 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 335,526,113.
Example:
1 x 335,526,113 = 335,526,113
and
-1 x -335,526,113 = 335,526,113
Notice both answers equal 335,526,113
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 335,526,113 and divide it by 2:
335,526,113 ÷ 2 = 167,763,056.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 167,763,056.5 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 | 335,526,113 | |
| -1 | -335,526,113 |
Now, we try dividing 335,526,113 by 3:
335,526,113 ÷ 3 = 111,842,037.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 111,842,037.6667 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 | 335,526,113 | |
| -1 | -335,526,113 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
335,526,113 ÷ 4 = 83,881,528.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 83,881,528.25 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 | 335,526,113 | |
| -1 | 335,526,113 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 31 | 157 | 403 | 2,041 | 4,867 | 5,303 | 63,271 | 68,939 | 164,393 | 832,571 | 2,137,109 | 10,823,423 | 25,809,701 | 335,526,113 |
| -1 | -13 | -31 | -157 | -403 | -2,041 | -4,867 | -5,303 | -63,271 | -68,939 | -164,393 | -832,571 | -2,137,109 | -10,823,423 | -25,809,701 | -335,526,113 |
