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 535,003,235, 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 | 535,003,235 | |
| -1 | -535,003,235 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 535,003,235.
Example:
1 x 535,003,235 = 535,003,235
and
-1 x -535,003,235 = 535,003,235
Notice both answers equal 535,003,235
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 535,003,235 and divide it by 2:
535,003,235 ÷ 2 = 267,501,617.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 267,501,617.5 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 | 535,003,235 | |
| -1 | -535,003,235 |
Now, we try dividing 535,003,235 by 3:
535,003,235 ÷ 3 = 178,334,411.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 178,334,411.6667 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 | 535,003,235 | |
| -1 | -535,003,235 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
535,003,235 ÷ 4 = 133,750,808.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 133,750,808.75 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 | 535,003,235 | |
| -1 | 535,003,235 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 19 | 65 | 95 | 247 | 1,235 | 433,201 | 2,166,005 | 5,631,613 | 8,230,819 | 28,158,065 | 41,154,095 | 107,000,647 | 535,003,235 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -19 | -65 | -95 | -247 | -1,235 | -433,201 | -2,166,005 | -5,631,613 | -8,230,819 | -28,158,065 | -41,154,095 | -107,000,647 | -535,003,235 |
