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 101,434,333, 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 | 101,434,333 | |
| -1 | -101,434,333 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 101,434,333.
Example:
1 x 101,434,333 = 101,434,333
and
-1 x -101,434,333 = 101,434,333
Notice both answers equal 101,434,333
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 101,434,333 and divide it by 2:
101,434,333 ÷ 2 = 50,717,166.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 50,717,166.5 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 | 101,434,333 | |
| -1 | -101,434,333 |
Now, we try dividing 101,434,333 by 3:
101,434,333 ÷ 3 = 33,811,444.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 33,811,444.3333 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 | 101,434,333 | |
| -1 | -101,434,333 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
101,434,333 ÷ 4 = 25,358,583.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 25,358,583.25 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 | 101,434,333 | |
| -1 | 101,434,333 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 11 | 13 | 77 | 91 | 143 | 1,001 | 101,333 | 709,331 | 1,114,663 | 1,317,329 | 7,802,641 | 9,221,303 | 14,490,619 | 101,434,333 |
| -1 | -7 | -11 | -13 | -77 | -91 | -143 | -1,001 | -101,333 | -709,331 | -1,114,663 | -1,317,329 | -7,802,641 | -9,221,303 | -14,490,619 | -101,434,333 |
