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 365,462,755, 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 | 365,462,755 | |
| -1 | -365,462,755 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 365,462,755.
Example:
1 x 365,462,755 = 365,462,755
and
-1 x -365,462,755 = 365,462,755
Notice both answers equal 365,462,755
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 365,462,755 and divide it by 2:
365,462,755 ÷ 2 = 182,731,377.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 182,731,377.5 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 | 365,462,755 | |
| -1 | -365,462,755 |
Now, we try dividing 365,462,755 by 3:
365,462,755 ÷ 3 = 121,820,918.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 121,820,918.3333 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 | 365,462,755 | |
| -1 | -365,462,755 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
365,462,755 ÷ 4 = 91,365,688.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 91,365,688.75 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 | 365,462,755 | |
| -1 | 365,462,755 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 23 | 35 | 115 | 161 | 805 | 453,991 | 2,269,955 | 3,177,937 | 10,441,793 | 15,889,685 | 52,208,965 | 73,092,551 | 365,462,755 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -23 | -35 | -115 | -161 | -805 | -453,991 | -2,269,955 | -3,177,937 | -10,441,793 | -15,889,685 | -52,208,965 | -73,092,551 | -365,462,755 |
