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 605,347,765, 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 | 605,347,765 | |
| -1 | -605,347,765 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 605,347,765.
Example:
1 x 605,347,765 = 605,347,765
and
-1 x -605,347,765 = 605,347,765
Notice both answers equal 605,347,765
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 605,347,765 and divide it by 2:
605,347,765 ÷ 2 = 302,673,882.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 302,673,882.5 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 | 605,347,765 | |
| -1 | -605,347,765 |
Now, we try dividing 605,347,765 by 3:
605,347,765 ÷ 3 = 201,782,588.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 201,782,588.3333 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 | 605,347,765 | |
| -1 | -605,347,765 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
605,347,765 ÷ 4 = 151,336,941.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 151,336,941.25 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 | 605,347,765 | |
| -1 | 605,347,765 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 11 | 43 | 55 | 215 | 473 | 2,365 | 255,961 | 1,279,805 | 2,815,571 | 11,006,323 | 14,077,855 | 55,031,615 | 121,069,553 | 605,347,765 |
| -1 | -5 | -11 | -43 | -55 | -215 | -473 | -2,365 | -255,961 | -1,279,805 | -2,815,571 | -11,006,323 | -14,077,855 | -55,031,615 | -121,069,553 | -605,347,765 |
