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 351,110,353, 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 | 351,110,353 | |
| -1 | -351,110,353 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 351,110,353.
Example:
1 x 351,110,353 = 351,110,353
and
-1 x -351,110,353 = 351,110,353
Notice both answers equal 351,110,353
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 351,110,353 and divide it by 2:
351,110,353 ÷ 2 = 175,555,176.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 175,555,176.5 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 | 351,110,353 | |
| -1 | -351,110,353 |
Now, we try dividing 351,110,353 by 3:
351,110,353 ÷ 3 = 117,036,784.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 117,036,784.3333 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 | 351,110,353 | |
| -1 | -351,110,353 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
351,110,353 ÷ 4 = 87,777,588.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 87,777,588.25 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 | 351,110,353 | |
| -1 | 351,110,353 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 37 | 407 | 479 | 1,801 | 5,269 | 17,723 | 19,811 | 66,637 | 194,953 | 733,007 | 862,679 | 9,489,469 | 31,919,123 | 351,110,353 |
| -1 | -11 | -37 | -407 | -479 | -1,801 | -5,269 | -17,723 | -19,811 | -66,637 | -194,953 | -733,007 | -862,679 | -9,489,469 | -31,919,123 | -351,110,353 |
