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 444,112,205, 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 | 444,112,205 | |
| -1 | -444,112,205 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 444,112,205.
Example:
1 x 444,112,205 = 444,112,205
and
-1 x -444,112,205 = 444,112,205
Notice both answers equal 444,112,205
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 444,112,205 and divide it by 2:
444,112,205 ÷ 2 = 222,056,102.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 222,056,102.5 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 | 444,112,205 | |
| -1 | -444,112,205 |
Now, we try dividing 444,112,205 by 3:
444,112,205 ÷ 3 = 148,037,401.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 148,037,401.6667 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 | 444,112,205 | |
| -1 | -444,112,205 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
444,112,205 ÷ 4 = 111,028,051.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 111,028,051.25 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 | 444,112,205 | |
| -1 | 444,112,205 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 41 | 205 | 367 | 1,835 | 5,903 | 15,047 | 29,515 | 75,235 | 242,023 | 1,210,115 | 2,166,401 | 10,832,005 | 88,822,441 | 444,112,205 |
| -1 | -5 | -41 | -205 | -367 | -1,835 | -5,903 | -15,047 | -29,515 | -75,235 | -242,023 | -1,210,115 | -2,166,401 | -10,832,005 | -88,822,441 | -444,112,205 |
