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 366,314,245, 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 | 366,314,245 | |
| -1 | -366,314,245 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 366,314,245.
Example:
1 x 366,314,245 = 366,314,245
and
-1 x -366,314,245 = 366,314,245
Notice both answers equal 366,314,245
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 366,314,245 and divide it by 2:
366,314,245 ÷ 2 = 183,157,122.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 183,157,122.5 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 | 366,314,245 | |
| -1 | -366,314,245 |
Now, we try dividing 366,314,245 by 3:
366,314,245 ÷ 3 = 122,104,748.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 122,104,748.3333 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 | 366,314,245 | |
| -1 | -366,314,245 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
366,314,245 ÷ 4 = 91,578,561.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 91,578,561.25 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 | 366,314,245 | |
| -1 | 366,314,245 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 37 | 55 | 185 | 407 | 2,035 | 180,007 | 900,035 | 1,980,077 | 6,660,259 | 9,900,385 | 33,301,295 | 73,262,849 | 366,314,245 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -37 | -55 | -185 | -407 | -2,035 | -180,007 | -900,035 | -1,980,077 | -6,660,259 | -9,900,385 | -33,301,295 | -73,262,849 | -366,314,245 |
