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 352,002,119, 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 | 352,002,119 | |
| -1 | -352,002,119 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 352,002,119.
Example:
1 x 352,002,119 = 352,002,119
and
-1 x -352,002,119 = 352,002,119
Notice both answers equal 352,002,119
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 352,002,119 and divide it by 2:
352,002,119 ÷ 2 = 176,001,059.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 176,001,059.5 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 | 352,002,119 | |
| -1 | -352,002,119 |
Now, we try dividing 352,002,119 by 3:
352,002,119 ÷ 3 = 117,334,039.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 117,334,039.6667 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 | 352,002,119 | |
| -1 | -352,002,119 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
352,002,119 ÷ 4 = 88,000,529.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 88,000,529.75 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 | 352,002,119 | |
| -1 | 352,002,119 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 17 | 113 | 119 | 791 | 1,921 | 13,447 | 26,177 | 183,239 | 445,009 | 2,958,001 | 3,115,063 | 20,706,007 | 50,286,017 | 352,002,119 |
| -1 | -7 | -17 | -113 | -119 | -791 | -1,921 | -13,447 | -26,177 | -183,239 | -445,009 | -2,958,001 | -3,115,063 | -20,706,007 | -50,286,017 | -352,002,119 |
