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 375,071,767, 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 | 375,071,767 | |
| -1 | -375,071,767 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 375,071,767.
Example:
1 x 375,071,767 = 375,071,767
and
-1 x -375,071,767 = 375,071,767
Notice both answers equal 375,071,767
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 375,071,767 and divide it by 2:
375,071,767 ÷ 2 = 187,535,883.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 187,535,883.5 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 | 375,071,767 | |
| -1 | -375,071,767 |
Now, we try dividing 375,071,767 by 3:
375,071,767 ÷ 3 = 125,023,922.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 125,023,922.3333 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 | 375,071,767 | |
| -1 | -375,071,767 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
375,071,767 ÷ 4 = 93,767,941.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 93,767,941.75 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 | 375,071,767 | |
| -1 | 375,071,767 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 127 | 179 | 889 | 1,253 | 2,357 | 16,499 | 22,733 | 159,131 | 299,339 | 421,903 | 2,095,373 | 2,953,321 | 53,581,681 | 375,071,767 |
| -1 | -7 | -127 | -179 | -889 | -1,253 | -2,357 | -16,499 | -22,733 | -159,131 | -299,339 | -421,903 | -2,095,373 | -2,953,321 | -53,581,681 | -375,071,767 |
