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 416,220,427, 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 | 416,220,427 | |
| -1 | -416,220,427 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 416,220,427.
Example:
1 x 416,220,427 = 416,220,427
and
-1 x -416,220,427 = 416,220,427
Notice both answers equal 416,220,427
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 416,220,427 and divide it by 2:
416,220,427 ÷ 2 = 208,110,213.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 208,110,213.5 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 | 416,220,427 | |
| -1 | -416,220,427 |
Now, we try dividing 416,220,427 by 3:
416,220,427 ÷ 3 = 138,740,142.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 138,740,142.3333 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 | 416,220,427 | |
| -1 | -416,220,427 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
416,220,427 ÷ 4 = 104,055,106.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 104,055,106.75 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 | 416,220,427 | |
| -1 | 416,220,427 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 79 | 553 | 743 | 1,013 | 5,201 | 7,091 | 58,697 | 80,027 | 410,879 | 560,189 | 752,659 | 5,268,613 | 59,460,061 | 416,220,427 |
| -1 | -7 | -79 | -553 | -743 | -1,013 | -5,201 | -7,091 | -58,697 | -80,027 | -410,879 | -560,189 | -752,659 | -5,268,613 | -59,460,061 | -416,220,427 |
