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 341,440,211, 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 | 341,440,211 | |
| -1 | -341,440,211 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 341,440,211.
Example:
1 x 341,440,211 = 341,440,211
and
-1 x -341,440,211 = 341,440,211
Notice both answers equal 341,440,211
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 341,440,211 and divide it by 2:
341,440,211 ÷ 2 = 170,720,105.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 170,720,105.5 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 | 341,440,211 | |
| -1 | -341,440,211 |
Now, we try dividing 341,440,211 by 3:
341,440,211 ÷ 3 = 113,813,403.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 113,813,403.6667 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 | 341,440,211 | |
| -1 | -341,440,211 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
341,440,211 ÷ 4 = 85,360,052.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 85,360,052.75 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 | 341,440,211 | |
| -1 | 341,440,211 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 109 | 661 | 677 | 763 | 4,627 | 4,739 | 72,049 | 73,793 | 447,497 | 504,343 | 516,551 | 3,132,479 | 48,777,173 | 341,440,211 |
| -1 | -7 | -109 | -661 | -677 | -763 | -4,627 | -4,739 | -72,049 | -73,793 | -447,497 | -504,343 | -516,551 | -3,132,479 | -48,777,173 | -341,440,211 |
