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 434,310,365, 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 | 434,310,365 | |
| -1 | -434,310,365 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 434,310,365.
Example:
1 x 434,310,365 = 434,310,365
and
-1 x -434,310,365 = 434,310,365
Notice both answers equal 434,310,365
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 434,310,365 and divide it by 2:
434,310,365 ÷ 2 = 217,155,182.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 217,155,182.5 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 | 434,310,365 | |
| -1 | -434,310,365 |
Now, we try dividing 434,310,365 by 3:
434,310,365 ÷ 3 = 144,770,121.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 144,770,121.6667 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 | 434,310,365 | |
| -1 | -434,310,365 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
434,310,365 ÷ 4 = 108,577,591.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 108,577,591.25 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 | 434,310,365 | |
| -1 | 434,310,365 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 83 | 139 | 415 | 695 | 7,529 | 11,537 | 37,645 | 57,685 | 624,907 | 1,046,531 | 3,124,535 | 5,232,655 | 86,862,073 | 434,310,365 |
| -1 | -5 | -83 | -139 | -415 | -695 | -7,529 | -11,537 | -37,645 | -57,685 | -624,907 | -1,046,531 | -3,124,535 | -5,232,655 | -86,862,073 | -434,310,365 |
