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 441,654,055, 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 | 441,654,055 | |
| -1 | -441,654,055 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 441,654,055.
Example:
1 x 441,654,055 = 441,654,055
and
-1 x -441,654,055 = 441,654,055
Notice both answers equal 441,654,055
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 441,654,055 and divide it by 2:
441,654,055 ÷ 2 = 220,827,027.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 220,827,027.5 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 | 441,654,055 | |
| -1 | -441,654,055 |
Now, we try dividing 441,654,055 by 3:
441,654,055 ÷ 3 = 147,218,018.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 147,218,018.3333 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 | 441,654,055 | |
| -1 | -441,654,055 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
441,654,055 ÷ 4 = 110,413,513.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 110,413,513.75 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 | 441,654,055 | |
| -1 | 441,654,055 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 31 | 131 | 155 | 655 | 4,061 | 20,305 | 21,751 | 108,755 | 674,281 | 2,849,381 | 3,371,405 | 14,246,905 | 88,330,811 | 441,654,055 |
| -1 | -5 | -31 | -131 | -155 | -655 | -4,061 | -20,305 | -21,751 | -108,755 | -674,281 | -2,849,381 | -3,371,405 | -14,246,905 | -88,330,811 | -441,654,055 |
