The phrase "adjusted by a factor" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts involving mathematical calculations, statistics, or any situation where a quantity is modified by a specific multiplier or divisor.
Example: "The final price of the product was adjusted by a factor of 1.2 to account for inflation."
Alternatives: "modified by a coefficient" or "altered by a multiplier".
