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 443,031,433, 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 | 443,031,433 | |
| -1 | -443,031,433 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 443,031,433.
Example:
1 x 443,031,433 = 443,031,433
and
-1 x -443,031,433 = 443,031,433
Notice both answers equal 443,031,433
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 443,031,433 and divide it by 2:
443,031,433 ÷ 2 = 221,515,716.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 221,515,716.5 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 | 443,031,433 | |
| -1 | -443,031,433 |
Now, we try dividing 443,031,433 by 3:
443,031,433 ÷ 3 = 147,677,144.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 147,677,144.3333 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 | 443,031,433 | |
| -1 | -443,031,433 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
443,031,433 ÷ 4 = 110,757,858.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 110,757,858.25 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 | 443,031,433 | |
| -1 | 443,031,433 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 151 | 269 | 839 | 1,963 | 3,497 | 10,907 | 40,619 | 126,689 | 225,691 | 528,047 | 1,646,957 | 2,933,983 | 34,079,341 | 443,031,433 |
| -1 | -13 | -151 | -269 | -839 | -1,963 | -3,497 | -10,907 | -40,619 | -126,689 | -225,691 | -528,047 | -1,646,957 | -2,933,983 | -34,079,341 | -443,031,433 |
