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 352,484,755, 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 | 352,484,755 | |
| -1 | -352,484,755 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 352,484,755.
Example:
1 x 352,484,755 = 352,484,755
and
-1 x -352,484,755 = 352,484,755
Notice both answers equal 352,484,755
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 352,484,755 and divide it by 2:
352,484,755 ÷ 2 = 176,242,377.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 176,242,377.5 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 | 352,484,755 | |
| -1 | -352,484,755 |
Now, we try dividing 352,484,755 by 3:
352,484,755 ÷ 3 = 117,494,918.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 117,494,918.3333 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 | 352,484,755 | |
| -1 | -352,484,755 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
352,484,755 ÷ 4 = 88,121,188.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 88,121,188.75 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 | 352,484,755 | |
| -1 | 352,484,755 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 37 | 185 | 259 | 1,295 | 272,189 | 1,360,945 | 1,905,323 | 9,526,615 | 10,070,993 | 50,354,965 | 70,496,951 | 352,484,755 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -37 | -185 | -259 | -1,295 | -272,189 | -1,360,945 | -1,905,323 | -9,526,615 | -10,070,993 | -50,354,965 | -70,496,951 | -352,484,755 |
