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 103,607,525, 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 | 103,607,525 | |
| -1 | -103,607,525 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 103,607,525.
Example:
1 x 103,607,525 = 103,607,525
and
-1 x -103,607,525 = 103,607,525
Notice both answers equal 103,607,525
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 103,607,525 and divide it by 2:
103,607,525 ÷ 2 = 51,803,762.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 51,803,762.5 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 | 103,607,525 | |
| -1 | -103,607,525 |
Now, we try dividing 103,607,525 by 3:
103,607,525 ÷ 3 = 34,535,841.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 34,535,841.6667 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 | 103,607,525 | |
| -1 | -103,607,525 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
103,607,525 ÷ 4 = 25,901,881.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 25,901,881.25 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 | 103,607,525 | |
| -1 | 103,607,525 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 23 | 25 | 35 | 115 | 161 | 175 | 575 | 805 | 4,025 | 25,741 | 128,705 | 180,187 | 592,043 | 643,525 | 900,935 | 2,960,215 | 4,144,301 | 4,504,675 | 14,801,075 | 20,721,505 | 103,607,525 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -23 | -25 | -35 | -115 | -161 | -175 | -575 | -805 | -4,025 | -25,741 | -128,705 | -180,187 | -592,043 | -643,525 | -900,935 | -2,960,215 | -4,144,301 | -4,504,675 | -14,801,075 | -20,721,505 | -103,607,525 |
