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 103,339,595, 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 | 103,339,595 | |
| -1 | -103,339,595 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 103,339,595.
Example:
1 x 103,339,595 = 103,339,595
and
-1 x -103,339,595 = 103,339,595
Notice both answers equal 103,339,595
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 103,339,595 and divide it by 2:
103,339,595 ÷ 2 = 51,669,797.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 51,669,797.5 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 | 103,339,595 | |
| -1 | -103,339,595 |
Now, we try dividing 103,339,595 by 3:
103,339,595 ÷ 3 = 34,446,531.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 34,446,531.6667 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 | 103,339,595 | |
| -1 | -103,339,595 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
103,339,595 ÷ 4 = 25,834,898.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 25,834,898.75 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 | 103,339,595 | |
| -1 | 103,339,595 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 191 | 241 | 449 | 955 | 1,205 | 2,245 | 46,031 | 85,759 | 108,209 | 230,155 | 428,795 | 541,045 | 20,667,919 | 103,339,595 |
| -1 | -5 | -191 | -241 | -449 | -955 | -1,205 | -2,245 | -46,031 | -85,759 | -108,209 | -230,155 | -428,795 | -541,045 | -20,667,919 | -103,339,595 |
