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 563,183,777, 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 | 563,183,777 | |
| -1 | -563,183,777 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 563,183,777.
Example:
1 x 563,183,777 = 563,183,777
and
-1 x -563,183,777 = 563,183,777
Notice both answers equal 563,183,777
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 563,183,777 and divide it by 2:
563,183,777 ÷ 2 = 281,591,888.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 281,591,888.5 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 | 563,183,777 | |
| -1 | -563,183,777 |
Now, we try dividing 563,183,777 by 3:
563,183,777 ÷ 3 = 187,727,925.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 187,727,925.6667 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 | 563,183,777 | |
| -1 | -563,183,777 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
563,183,777 ÷ 4 = 140,795,944.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 140,795,944.25 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 | 563,183,777 | |
| -1 | 563,183,777 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 53 | 101 | 689 | 1,313 | 5,353 | 8,093 | 69,589 | 105,209 | 428,929 | 817,393 | 5,576,077 | 10,626,109 | 43,321,829 | 563,183,777 |
| -1 | -13 | -53 | -101 | -689 | -1,313 | -5,353 | -8,093 | -69,589 | -105,209 | -428,929 | -817,393 | -5,576,077 | -10,626,109 | -43,321,829 | -563,183,777 |
