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 352,362,605, 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 | 352,362,605 | |
| -1 | -352,362,605 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 352,362,605.
Example:
1 x 352,362,605 = 352,362,605
and
-1 x -352,362,605 = 352,362,605
Notice both answers equal 352,362,605
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 352,362,605 and divide it by 2:
352,362,605 ÷ 2 = 176,181,302.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 176,181,302.5 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 | 352,362,605 | |
| -1 | -352,362,605 |
Now, we try dividing 352,362,605 by 3:
352,362,605 ÷ 3 = 117,454,201.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 117,454,201.6667 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 | 352,362,605 | |
| -1 | -352,362,605 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
352,362,605 ÷ 4 = 88,090,651.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 88,090,651.25 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 | 352,362,605 | |
| -1 | 352,362,605 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 73 | 365 | 511 | 2,555 | 137,911 | 689,555 | 965,377 | 4,826,885 | 10,067,503 | 50,337,515 | 70,472,521 | 352,362,605 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -73 | -365 | -511 | -2,555 | -137,911 | -689,555 | -965,377 | -4,826,885 | -10,067,503 | -50,337,515 | -70,472,521 | -352,362,605 |
