How do I find the factor combinations of the number 564,230,051?

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 564,230,051, it is easier to work with a table - it's called factoring from the outside in.

Outside in Factoring

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.

1 564,230,051
-1 -564,230,051

Why are the negative numbers included?

When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 564,230,051.

Example:
1 x 564,230,051 = 564,230,051
and
-1 x -564,230,051 = 564,230,051
Notice both answers equal 564,230,051

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 564,230,051 and divide it by 2:

564,230,051 ÷ 2 = 282,115,025.5

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 282,115,025.5 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:

1 564,230,051
-1 -564,230,051

Now, we try dividing 564,230,051 by 3:

564,230,051 ÷ 3 = 188,076,683.6667

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 188,076,683.6667 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:

1 564,230,051
-1 -564,230,051

Let's try dividing by 4:

564,230,051 ÷ 4 = 141,057,512.75

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 141,057,512.75 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:

1 564,230,051
-1 564,230,051
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

If you did it right, you will end up with this table:

17111749771191391874435398339731,3091,5292,3633,1014,8736,8117,5319,16310,70316,54121,70725,99334,11152,71761,57774,92182,841115,787181,951238,777369,019431,039579,887677,3471,046,8091,273,6573,017,2734,059,2094,741,4297,327,66311,514,89933,190,00351,293,64180,604,293564,230,051
