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 462,444,115, 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 | 462,444,115 | |
| -1 | -462,444,115 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 462,444,115.
Example:
1 x 462,444,115 = 462,444,115
and
-1 x -462,444,115 = 462,444,115
Notice both answers equal 462,444,115
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 462,444,115 and divide it by 2:
462,444,115 ÷ 2 = 231,222,057.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 231,222,057.5 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 | 462,444,115 | |
| -1 | -462,444,115 |
Now, we try dividing 462,444,115 by 3:
462,444,115 ÷ 3 = 154,148,038.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 154,148,038.3333 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 | 462,444,115 | |
| -1 | -462,444,115 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
462,444,115 ÷ 4 = 115,611,028.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 115,611,028.75 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 | 462,444,115 | |
| -1 | 462,444,115 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 17 | 35 | 49 | 85 | 119 | 245 | 595 | 833 | 4,165 | 111,031 | 555,155 | 777,217 | 1,887,527 | 3,886,085 | 5,440,519 | 9,437,635 | 13,212,689 | 27,202,595 | 66,063,445 | 92,488,823 | 462,444,115 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -17 | -35 | -49 | -85 | -119 | -245 | -595 | -833 | -4,165 | -111,031 | -555,155 | -777,217 | -1,887,527 | -3,886,085 | -5,440,519 | -9,437,635 | -13,212,689 | -27,202,595 | -66,063,445 | -92,488,823 | -462,444,115 |
