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 101,335,309, 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 | 101,335,309 | |
| -1 | -101,335,309 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 101,335,309.
Example:
1 x 101,335,309 = 101,335,309
and
-1 x -101,335,309 = 101,335,309
Notice both answers equal 101,335,309
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 101,335,309 and divide it by 2:
101,335,309 ÷ 2 = 50,667,654.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 50,667,654.5 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 | 101,335,309 | |
| -1 | -101,335,309 |
Now, we try dividing 101,335,309 by 3:
101,335,309 ÷ 3 = 33,778,436.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 33,778,436.3333 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 | 101,335,309 | |
| -1 | -101,335,309 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
101,335,309 ÷ 4 = 25,333,827.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 25,333,827.25 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 | 101,335,309 | |
| -1 | 101,335,309 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 23 | 29 | 139 | 667 | 1,093 | 3,197 | 4,031 | 25,139 | 31,697 | 92,713 | 151,927 | 729,031 | 3,494,321 | 4,405,883 | 101,335,309 |
| -1 | -23 | -29 | -139 | -667 | -1,093 | -3,197 | -4,031 | -25,139 | -31,697 | -92,713 | -151,927 | -729,031 | -3,494,321 | -4,405,883 | -101,335,309 |
