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 364,044,005, 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 | 364,044,005 | |
| -1 | -364,044,005 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 364,044,005.
Example:
1 x 364,044,005 = 364,044,005
and
-1 x -364,044,005 = 364,044,005
Notice both answers equal 364,044,005
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 364,044,005 and divide it by 2:
364,044,005 ÷ 2 = 182,022,002.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 182,022,002.5 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 | 364,044,005 | |
| -1 | -364,044,005 |
Now, we try dividing 364,044,005 by 3:
364,044,005 ÷ 3 = 121,348,001.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 121,348,001.6667 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 | 364,044,005 | |
| -1 | -364,044,005 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
364,044,005 ÷ 4 = 91,011,001.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 91,011,001.25 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 | 364,044,005 | |
| -1 | 364,044,005 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 31 | 65 | 155 | 403 | 2,015 | 180,667 | 903,335 | 2,348,671 | 5,600,677 | 11,743,355 | 28,003,385 | 72,808,801 | 364,044,005 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -31 | -65 | -155 | -403 | -2,015 | -180,667 | -903,335 | -2,348,671 | -5,600,677 | -11,743,355 | -28,003,385 | -72,808,801 | -364,044,005 |
