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 341,114,201, 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 | 341,114,201 | |
| -1 | -341,114,201 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 341,114,201.
Example:
1 x 341,114,201 = 341,114,201
and
-1 x -341,114,201 = 341,114,201
Notice both answers equal 341,114,201
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 341,114,201 and divide it by 2:
341,114,201 ÷ 2 = 170,557,100.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 170,557,100.5 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 | 341,114,201 | |
| -1 | -341,114,201 |
Now, we try dividing 341,114,201 by 3:
341,114,201 ÷ 3 = 113,704,733.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 113,704,733.6667 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 | 341,114,201 | |
| -1 | -341,114,201 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
341,114,201 ÷ 4 = 85,278,550.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 85,278,550.25 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 | 341,114,201 | |
| -1 | 341,114,201 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 53 | 139 | 1,007 | 2,437 | 2,641 | 7,367 | 46,303 | 129,161 | 139,973 | 338,743 | 2,454,059 | 6,436,117 | 17,953,379 | 341,114,201 |
| -1 | -19 | -53 | -139 | -1,007 | -2,437 | -2,641 | -7,367 | -46,303 | -129,161 | -139,973 | -338,743 | -2,454,059 | -6,436,117 | -17,953,379 | -341,114,201 |
