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 606,110,401, 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 | 606,110,401 | |
| -1 | -606,110,401 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 606,110,401.
Example:
1 x 606,110,401 = 606,110,401
and
-1 x -606,110,401 = 606,110,401
Notice both answers equal 606,110,401
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 606,110,401 and divide it by 2:
606,110,401 ÷ 2 = 303,055,200.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 303,055,200.5 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 | 606,110,401 | |
| -1 | -606,110,401 |
Now, we try dividing 606,110,401 by 3:
606,110,401 ÷ 3 = 202,036,800.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 202,036,800.3333 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 | 606,110,401 | |
| -1 | -606,110,401 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
606,110,401 ÷ 4 = 151,527,600.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 151,527,600.25 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 | 606,110,401 | |
| -1 | 606,110,401 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 17 | 103 | 221 | 1,339 | 1,751 | 22,763 | 26,627 | 346,151 | 452,659 | 2,742,581 | 5,884,567 | 35,653,553 | 46,623,877 | 606,110,401 |
| -1 | -13 | -17 | -103 | -221 | -1,339 | -1,751 | -22,763 | -26,627 | -346,151 | -452,659 | -2,742,581 | -5,884,567 | -35,653,553 | -46,623,877 | -606,110,401 |
