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 514,134,011, 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 | 514,134,011 | |
| -1 | -514,134,011 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 514,134,011.
Example:
1 x 514,134,011 = 514,134,011
and
-1 x -514,134,011 = 514,134,011
Notice both answers equal 514,134,011
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 514,134,011 and divide it by 2:
514,134,011 ÷ 2 = 257,067,005.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 257,067,005.5 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 | 514,134,011 | |
| -1 | -514,134,011 |
Now, we try dividing 514,134,011 by 3:
514,134,011 ÷ 3 = 171,378,003.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 171,378,003.6667 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 | 514,134,011 | |
| -1 | -514,134,011 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
514,134,011 ÷ 4 = 128,533,502.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 128,533,502.75 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 | 514,134,011 | |
| -1 | 514,134,011 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 29 | 137 | 151 | 857 | 3,973 | 4,379 | 20,687 | 24,853 | 117,409 | 129,407 | 599,923 | 3,404,861 | 3,752,803 | 17,728,759 | 514,134,011 |
| -1 | -29 | -137 | -151 | -857 | -3,973 | -4,379 | -20,687 | -24,853 | -117,409 | -129,407 | -599,923 | -3,404,861 | -3,752,803 | -17,728,759 | -514,134,011 |
