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 101,045,525, 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 | 101,045,525 | |
| -1 | -101,045,525 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 101,045,525.
Example:
1 x 101,045,525 = 101,045,525
and
-1 x -101,045,525 = 101,045,525
Notice both answers equal 101,045,525
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 101,045,525 and divide it by 2:
101,045,525 ÷ 2 = 50,522,762.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 50,522,762.5 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 | 101,045,525 | |
| -1 | -101,045,525 |
Now, we try dividing 101,045,525 by 3:
101,045,525 ÷ 3 = 33,681,841.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 33,681,841.6667 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 | 101,045,525 | |
| -1 | -101,045,525 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
101,045,525 ÷ 4 = 25,261,381.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 25,261,381.25 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 | 101,045,525 | |
| -1 | 101,045,525 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 25 | 35 | 41 | 175 | 205 | 287 | 1,025 | 1,435 | 7,175 | 14,083 | 70,415 | 98,581 | 352,075 | 492,905 | 577,403 | 2,464,525 | 2,887,015 | 4,041,821 | 14,435,075 | 20,209,105 | 101,045,525 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -25 | -35 | -41 | -175 | -205 | -287 | -1,025 | -1,435 | -7,175 | -14,083 | -70,415 | -98,581 | -352,075 | -492,905 | -577,403 | -2,464,525 | -2,887,015 | -4,041,821 | -14,435,075 | -20,209,105 | -101,045,525 |
