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 530,362,151, 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 | 530,362,151 | |
| -1 | -530,362,151 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 530,362,151.
Example:
1 x 530,362,151 = 530,362,151
and
-1 x -530,362,151 = 530,362,151
Notice both answers equal 530,362,151
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 530,362,151 and divide it by 2:
530,362,151 ÷ 2 = 265,181,075.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 265,181,075.5 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 | 530,362,151 | |
| -1 | -530,362,151 |
Now, we try dividing 530,362,151 by 3:
530,362,151 ÷ 3 = 176,787,383.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 176,787,383.6667 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 | 530,362,151 | |
| -1 | -530,362,151 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
530,362,151 ÷ 4 = 132,590,537.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 132,590,537.75 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 | 530,362,151 | |
| -1 | 530,362,151 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 59 | 67 | 649 | 737 | 3,953 | 12,197 | 43,483 | 134,167 | 719,623 | 817,199 | 7,915,853 | 8,989,189 | 48,214,741 | 530,362,151 |
| -1 | -11 | -59 | -67 | -649 | -737 | -3,953 | -12,197 | -43,483 | -134,167 | -719,623 | -817,199 | -7,915,853 | -8,989,189 | -48,214,741 | -530,362,151 |
