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 430,123,435, 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 | 430,123,435 | |
| -1 | -430,123,435 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 430,123,435.
Example:
1 x 430,123,435 = 430,123,435
and
-1 x -430,123,435 = 430,123,435
Notice both answers equal 430,123,435
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 430,123,435 and divide it by 2:
430,123,435 ÷ 2 = 215,061,717.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 215,061,717.5 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 | 430,123,435 | |
| -1 | -430,123,435 |
Now, we try dividing 430,123,435 by 3:
430,123,435 ÷ 3 = 143,374,478.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 143,374,478.3333 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 | 430,123,435 | |
| -1 | -430,123,435 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
430,123,435 ÷ 4 = 107,530,858.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 107,530,858.75 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 | 430,123,435 | |
| -1 | 430,123,435 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 131 | 655 | 917 | 4,585 | 93,811 | 469,055 | 656,677 | 3,283,385 | 12,289,241 | 61,446,205 | 86,024,687 | 430,123,435 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -131 | -655 | -917 | -4,585 | -93,811 | -469,055 | -656,677 | -3,283,385 | -12,289,241 | -61,446,205 | -86,024,687 | -430,123,435 |
