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 366,463,207, 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 | 366,463,207 | |
| -1 | -366,463,207 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 366,463,207.
Example:
1 x 366,463,207 = 366,463,207
and
-1 x -366,463,207 = 366,463,207
Notice both answers equal 366,463,207
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 366,463,207 and divide it by 2:
366,463,207 ÷ 2 = 183,231,603.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 183,231,603.5 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 | 366,463,207 | |
| -1 | -366,463,207 |
Now, we try dividing 366,463,207 by 3:
366,463,207 ÷ 3 = 122,154,402.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 122,154,402.3333 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 | 366,463,207 | |
| -1 | -366,463,207 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
366,463,207 ÷ 4 = 91,615,801.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 91,615,801.75 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 | 366,463,207 | |
| -1 | 366,463,207 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 37 | 41 | 407 | 451 | 1,517 | 16,687 | 21,961 | 241,571 | 812,557 | 900,401 | 8,938,127 | 9,904,411 | 33,314,837 | 366,463,207 |
| -1 | -11 | -37 | -41 | -407 | -451 | -1,517 | -16,687 | -21,961 | -241,571 | -812,557 | -900,401 | -8,938,127 | -9,904,411 | -33,314,837 | -366,463,207 |
