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 101,413,301, 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 | 101,413,301 | |
| -1 | -101,413,301 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 101,413,301.
Example:
1 x 101,413,301 = 101,413,301
and
-1 x -101,413,301 = 101,413,301
Notice both answers equal 101,413,301
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 101,413,301 and divide it by 2:
101,413,301 ÷ 2 = 50,706,650.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 50,706,650.5 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 | 101,413,301 | |
| -1 | -101,413,301 |
Now, we try dividing 101,413,301 by 3:
101,413,301 ÷ 3 = 33,804,433.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 33,804,433.6667 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 | 101,413,301 | |
| -1 | -101,413,301 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
101,413,301 ÷ 4 = 25,353,325.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 25,353,325.25 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 | 101,413,301 | |
| -1 | 101,413,301 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 83 | 277 | 401 | 913 | 3,047 | 4,411 | 22,991 | 33,283 | 111,077 | 252,901 | 366,113 | 1,221,847 | 9,219,391 | 101,413,301 |
| -1 | -11 | -83 | -277 | -401 | -913 | -3,047 | -4,411 | -22,991 | -33,283 | -111,077 | -252,901 | -366,113 | -1,221,847 | -9,219,391 | -101,413,301 |
