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 554,411,039, 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 | 554,411,039 | |
| -1 | -554,411,039 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 554,411,039.
Example:
1 x 554,411,039 = 554,411,039
and
-1 x -554,411,039 = 554,411,039
Notice both answers equal 554,411,039
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 554,411,039 and divide it by 2:
554,411,039 ÷ 2 = 277,205,519.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 277,205,519.5 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 | 554,411,039 | |
| -1 | -554,411,039 |
Now, we try dividing 554,411,039 by 3:
554,411,039 ÷ 3 = 184,803,679.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 184,803,679.6667 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 | 554,411,039 | |
| -1 | -554,411,039 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
554,411,039 ÷ 4 = 138,602,759.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 138,602,759.75 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 | 554,411,039 | |
| -1 | 554,411,039 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 13 | 49 | 91 | 599 | 637 | 1,453 | 4,193 | 7,787 | 10,171 | 18,889 | 29,351 | 54,509 | 71,197 | 132,223 | 381,563 | 870,347 | 925,561 | 6,092,429 | 11,314,511 | 42,647,003 | 79,201,577 | 554,411,039 |
| -1 | -7 | -13 | -49 | -91 | -599 | -637 | -1,453 | -4,193 | -7,787 | -10,171 | -18,889 | -29,351 | -54,509 | -71,197 | -132,223 | -381,563 | -870,347 | -925,561 | -6,092,429 | -11,314,511 | -42,647,003 | -79,201,577 | -554,411,039 |
