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 634,533,163, 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 | 634,533,163 | |
| -1 | -634,533,163 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 634,533,163.
Example:
1 x 634,533,163 = 634,533,163
and
-1 x -634,533,163 = 634,533,163
Notice both answers equal 634,533,163
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 634,533,163 and divide it by 2:
634,533,163 ÷ 2 = 317,266,581.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 317,266,581.5 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 | 634,533,163 | |
| -1 | -634,533,163 |
Now, we try dividing 634,533,163 by 3:
634,533,163 ÷ 3 = 211,511,054.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 211,511,054.3333 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 | 634,533,163 | |
| -1 | -634,533,163 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
634,533,163 ÷ 4 = 158,633,290.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 158,633,290.75 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 | 634,533,163 | |
| -1 | 634,533,163 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 61 | 97 | 671 | 1,067 | 5,917 | 9,749 | 65,087 | 107,239 | 594,689 | 945,653 | 6,541,579 | 10,402,183 | 57,684,833 | 634,533,163 |
| -1 | -11 | -61 | -97 | -671 | -1,067 | -5,917 | -9,749 | -65,087 | -107,239 | -594,689 | -945,653 | -6,541,579 | -10,402,183 | -57,684,833 | -634,533,163 |
