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 443,453,455, 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 | 443,453,455 | |
| -1 | -443,453,455 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 443,453,455.
Example:
1 x 443,453,455 = 443,453,455
and
-1 x -443,453,455 = 443,453,455
Notice both answers equal 443,453,455
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 443,453,455 and divide it by 2:
443,453,455 ÷ 2 = 221,726,727.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 221,726,727.5 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 | 443,453,455 | |
| -1 | -443,453,455 |
Now, we try dividing 443,453,455 by 3:
443,453,455 ÷ 3 = 147,817,818.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 147,817,818.3333 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 | 443,453,455 | |
| -1 | -443,453,455 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
443,453,455 ÷ 4 = 110,863,363.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 110,863,363.75 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 | 443,453,455 | |
| -1 | 443,453,455 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 115 | 277 | 1,385 | 6,371 | 13,921 | 31,855 | 69,605 | 320,183 | 1,600,915 | 3,856,117 | 19,280,585 | 88,690,691 | 443,453,455 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -115 | -277 | -1,385 | -6,371 | -13,921 | -31,855 | -69,605 | -320,183 | -1,600,915 | -3,856,117 | -19,280,585 | -88,690,691 | -443,453,455 |
