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 483,651,413, 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 | 483,651,413 | |
| -1 | -483,651,413 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 483,651,413.
Example:
1 x 483,651,413 = 483,651,413
and
-1 x -483,651,413 = 483,651,413
Notice both answers equal 483,651,413
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 483,651,413 and divide it by 2:
483,651,413 ÷ 2 = 241,825,706.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 241,825,706.5 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 | 483,651,413 | |
| -1 | -483,651,413 |
Now, we try dividing 483,651,413 by 3:
483,651,413 ÷ 3 = 161,217,137.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 161,217,137.6667 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 | 483,651,413 | |
| -1 | -483,651,413 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
483,651,413 ÷ 4 = 120,912,853.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 120,912,853.25 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 | 483,651,413 | |
| -1 | 483,651,413 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 49 | 113 | 773 | 791 | 5,411 | 5,537 | 12,769 | 37,877 | 87,349 | 89,383 | 611,443 | 625,681 | 4,280,101 | 9,870,437 | 69,093,059 | 483,651,413 |
| -1 | -7 | -49 | -113 | -773 | -791 | -5,411 | -5,537 | -12,769 | -37,877 | -87,349 | -89,383 | -611,443 | -625,681 | -4,280,101 | -9,870,437 | -69,093,059 | -483,651,413 |
