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 453,465,535, 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 | 453,465,535 | |
| -1 | -453,465,535 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 453,465,535.
Example:
1 x 453,465,535 = 453,465,535
and
-1 x -453,465,535 = 453,465,535
Notice both answers equal 453,465,535
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 453,465,535 and divide it by 2:
453,465,535 ÷ 2 = 226,732,767.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 226,732,767.5 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 | 453,465,535 | |
| -1 | -453,465,535 |
Now, we try dividing 453,465,535 by 3:
453,465,535 ÷ 3 = 151,155,178.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 151,155,178.3333 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 | 453,465,535 | |
| -1 | -453,465,535 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
453,465,535 ÷ 4 = 113,366,383.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 113,366,383.75 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 | 453,465,535 | |
| -1 | 453,465,535 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 41 | 205 | 563 | 2,815 | 3,929 | 19,645 | 23,083 | 115,415 | 161,089 | 805,445 | 2,212,027 | 11,060,135 | 90,693,107 | 453,465,535 |
| -1 | -5 | -41 | -205 | -563 | -2,815 | -3,929 | -19,645 | -23,083 | -115,415 | -161,089 | -805,445 | -2,212,027 | -11,060,135 | -90,693,107 | -453,465,535 |
