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 434,135,165, 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 | 434,135,165 | |
| -1 | -434,135,165 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 434,135,165.
Example:
1 x 434,135,165 = 434,135,165
and
-1 x -434,135,165 = 434,135,165
Notice both answers equal 434,135,165
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 434,135,165 and divide it by 2:
434,135,165 ÷ 2 = 217,067,582.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 217,067,582.5 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 | 434,135,165 | |
| -1 | -434,135,165 |
Now, we try dividing 434,135,165 by 3:
434,135,165 ÷ 3 = 144,711,721.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 144,711,721.6667 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 | 434,135,165 | |
| -1 | -434,135,165 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
434,135,165 ÷ 4 = 108,533,791.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 108,533,791.25 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 | 434,135,165 | |
| -1 | 434,135,165 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 193 | 281 | 965 | 1,405 | 1,601 | 8,005 | 54,233 | 271,165 | 308,993 | 449,881 | 1,544,965 | 2,249,405 | 86,827,033 | 434,135,165 |
| -1 | -5 | -193 | -281 | -965 | -1,405 | -1,601 | -8,005 | -54,233 | -271,165 | -308,993 | -449,881 | -1,544,965 | -2,249,405 | -86,827,033 | -434,135,165 |
