How do I find the factor combinations of the number 354,501,323?

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 354,501,323, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.

Outside in Factoring

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.

1 354,501,323
-1 -354,501,323

Why are the negative numbers included?

When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 354,501,323.

Example:
1 x 354,501,323 = 354,501,323
and
-1 x -354,501,323 = 354,501,323
Notice both answers equal 354,501,323

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 354,501,323 and divide it by 2:

354,501,323 ÷ 2 = 177,250,661.5

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 177,250,661.5 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:

1 354,501,323
-1 -354,501,323

Now, we try dividing 354,501,323 by 3:

354,501,323 ÷ 3 = 118,167,107.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 118,167,107.6667 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:

1 354,501,323
-1 -354,501,323

Let's try dividing by 4:

354,501,323 ÷ 4 = 88,625,330.75

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 88,625,330.75 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:

1 354,501,323
-1 354,501,323
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

If you did it right, you will end up with this table:

1111723591211271872533916491,0031,3571,3972,0572,1592,7832,9214,3017,1397,49311,03314,92715,36723,06923,74932,13147,31149,65782,423121,363127,381164,197172,339253,759261,239353,441546,227906,6531,401,1911,895,7292,791,3492,929,7636,008,49715,413,10120,853,01932,227,393354,501,323
