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 483,443,765, 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 | 483,443,765 | |
| -1 | -483,443,765 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 483,443,765.
Example:
1 x 483,443,765 = 483,443,765
and
-1 x -483,443,765 = 483,443,765
Notice both answers equal 483,443,765
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 483,443,765 and divide it by 2:
483,443,765 ÷ 2 = 241,721,882.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 241,721,882.5 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 | 483,443,765 | |
| -1 | -483,443,765 |
Now, we try dividing 483,443,765 by 3:
483,443,765 ÷ 3 = 161,147,921.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 161,147,921.6667 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 | 483,443,765 | |
| -1 | -483,443,765 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
483,443,765 ÷ 4 = 120,860,941.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 120,860,941.25 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 | 483,443,765 | |
| -1 | 483,443,765 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 463 | 2,315 | 3,241 | 16,205 | 29,833 | 149,165 | 208,831 | 1,044,155 | 13,812,679 | 69,063,395 | 96,688,753 | 483,443,765 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -463 | -2,315 | -3,241 | -16,205 | -29,833 | -149,165 | -208,831 | -1,044,155 | -13,812,679 | -69,063,395 | -96,688,753 | -483,443,765 |
