How do I find the factor combinations of the number 735,002,125?

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 735,002,125, 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.

1 735,002,125
-1 -735,002,125

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 735,002,125.

Example:
1 x 735,002,125 = 735,002,125
and
-1 x -735,002,125 = 735,002,125
Notice both answers equal 735,002,125

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 735,002,125 and divide it by 2:

735,002,125 ÷ 2 = 367,501,062.5

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 367,501,062.5 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:

1 735,002,125
-1 -735,002,125

Now, we try dividing 735,002,125 by 3:

735,002,125 ÷ 3 = 245,000,708.3333

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 245,000,708.3333 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:

1 735,002,125
-1 -735,002,125

Let's try dividing by 4:

735,002,125 ÷ 4 = 183,750,531.25

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 183,750,531.25 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:

1 735,002,125
-1 735,002,125
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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

1511132555651251431692753257158451,3751,6251,8593,1633,5754,2259,29515,81517,87521,12534,79341,11946,47579,075173,965205,595232,375395,375452,309534,547869,8251,027,9752,261,5452,672,7354,349,1255,139,8755,880,01711,307,72513,363,67529,400,08556,538,62566,818,375147,000,425735,002,125
