How do I find the factor combinations of the number 763,705,500?

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 763,705,500, 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.

1 763,705,500
-1 -763,705,500

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 763,705,500.

Example:
1 x 763,705,500 = 763,705,500
and
-1 x -763,705,500 = 763,705,500
Notice both answers equal 763,705,500

With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 763,705,500 and divide it by 2:

763,705,500 ÷ 2 = 381,852,750

If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 381,852,750 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 381,852,750 763,705,500
-1 -2 -381,852,750 -763,705,500

Now, we try dividing 763,705,500 by 3:

763,705,500 ÷ 3 = 254,568,500

If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 254,568,500 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 3 254,568,500 381,852,750 763,705,500
-1 -2 -3 -254,568,500 -381,852,750 -763,705,500

Let's try dividing by 4:

763,705,500 ÷ 4 = 190,926,375

If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 190,926,375 are factors. In this case, the quotient is a whole number. Write them in the table inside the other two factors like the below example. Don't forget to write the negative numbers too!

Here is what our table should look like at this step:

1 2 3 4 190,926,375 254,568,500 381,852,750 763,705,500
-1 -2 -3 -4 -190,926,375 -254,568,500 -381,852,750 763,705,500
Keep dividing by the next highest number until you cannot divide anymore.

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