How do I find the factor combinations of the number 440,440,273?

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 440,440,273, 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.

1 440,440,273
-1 -440,440,273

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 440,440,273.

Example:
1 x 440,440,273 = 440,440,273
and
-1 x -440,440,273 = 440,440,273
Notice both answers equal 440,440,273

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 440,440,273 and divide it by 2:

440,440,273 ÷ 2 = 220,220,136.5

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 220,220,136.5 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:

1 440,440,273
-1 -440,440,273

Now, we try dividing 440,440,273 by 3:

440,440,273 ÷ 3 = 146,813,424.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 146,813,424.3333 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:

1 440,440,273
-1 -440,440,273

Let's try dividing by 4:

440,440,273 ÷ 4 = 110,110,068.25

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 110,110,068.25 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:

1 440,440,273
-1 440,440,273
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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

17131949911331512412476379311,0571,6871,7291,9632,8693,1334,5797,39911,80912,10313,74120,08321,93132,05336,39137,29759,52796,187140,581153,517224,371254,737261,079416,689473,083691,4291,783,1591,827,5532,916,8233,311,5814,840,0038,988,57723,181,06733,880,02162,920,039440,440,273
