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 452,413,003, 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 | 452,413,003 | |
| -1 | -452,413,003 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 452,413,003.
Example:
1 x 452,413,003 = 452,413,003
and
-1 x -452,413,003 = 452,413,003
Notice both answers equal 452,413,003
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 452,413,003 and divide it by 2:
452,413,003 ÷ 2 = 226,206,501.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 226,206,501.5 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 | 452,413,003 | |
| -1 | -452,413,003 |
Now, we try dividing 452,413,003 by 3:
452,413,003 ÷ 3 = 150,804,334.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 150,804,334.3333 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 | 452,413,003 | |
| -1 | -452,413,003 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
452,413,003 ÷ 4 = 113,103,250.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 113,103,250.75 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 | 452,413,003 | |
| -1 | 452,413,003 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 59 | 413 | 613 | 1,787 | 4,291 | 12,509 | 36,167 | 105,433 | 253,169 | 738,031 | 1,095,431 | 7,668,017 | 64,630,429 | 452,413,003 |
| -1 | -7 | -59 | -413 | -613 | -1,787 | -4,291 | -12,509 | -36,167 | -105,433 | -253,169 | -738,031 | -1,095,431 | -7,668,017 | -64,630,429 | -452,413,003 |
