How do I find the factor combinations of the number 406,501,025?

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 406,501,025, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.

Outside in Factoring

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.

1 406,501,025
-1 -406,501,025

Why are the negative numbers included?

When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 406,501,025.

Example:
1 x 406,501,025 = 406,501,025
and
-1 x -406,501,025 = 406,501,025
Notice both answers equal 406,501,025

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 406,501,025 and divide it by 2:

406,501,025 ÷ 2 = 203,250,512.5

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 203,250,512.5 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:

1 406,501,025
-1 -406,501,025

Now, we try dividing 406,501,025 by 3:

406,501,025 ÷ 3 = 135,500,341.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 135,500,341.6667 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:

1 406,501,025
-1 -406,501,025

Let's try dividing by 4:

406,501,025 ÷ 4 = 101,625,256.25

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 101,625,256.25 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:

1 406,501,025
-1 406,501,025
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

If you did it right, you will end up with this table:

157172535851071191754255355957491,2771,8192,6752,9753,7456,3858,9399,09512,73318,72521,70931,92544,69545,47563,665108,545136,639151,963223,475318,325542,725683,195759,815956,4732,322,8633,415,9753,799,0754,782,36511,614,31516,260,04123,911,82558,071,57581,300,205406,501,025
