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 350,083,645, 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 | 350,083,645 | |
| -1 | -350,083,645 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 350,083,645.
Example:
1 x 350,083,645 = 350,083,645
and
-1 x -350,083,645 = 350,083,645
Notice both answers equal 350,083,645
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 350,083,645 and divide it by 2:
350,083,645 ÷ 2 = 175,041,822.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 175,041,822.5 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 | 350,083,645 | |
| -1 | -350,083,645 |
Now, we try dividing 350,083,645 by 3:
350,083,645 ÷ 3 = 116,694,548.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 116,694,548.3333 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 | 350,083,645 | |
| -1 | -350,083,645 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
350,083,645 ÷ 4 = 87,520,911.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 87,520,911.25 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 | 350,083,645 | |
| -1 | 350,083,645 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 95 | 349 | 1,745 | 6,631 | 10,559 | 33,155 | 52,795 | 200,621 | 1,003,105 | 3,685,091 | 18,425,455 | 70,016,729 | 350,083,645 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -95 | -349 | -1,745 | -6,631 | -10,559 | -33,155 | -52,795 | -200,621 | -1,003,105 | -3,685,091 | -18,425,455 | -70,016,729 | -350,083,645 |
