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 104,123,435, 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 | 104,123,435 | |
| -1 | -104,123,435 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 104,123,435.
Example:
1 x 104,123,435 = 104,123,435
and
-1 x -104,123,435 = 104,123,435
Notice both answers equal 104,123,435
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 104,123,435 and divide it by 2:
104,123,435 ÷ 2 = 52,061,717.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 52,061,717.5 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 | 104,123,435 | |
| -1 | -104,123,435 |
Now, we try dividing 104,123,435 by 3:
104,123,435 ÷ 3 = 34,707,811.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 34,707,811.6667 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 | 104,123,435 | |
| -1 | -104,123,435 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
104,123,435 ÷ 4 = 26,030,858.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 26,030,858.75 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 | 104,123,435 | |
| -1 | 104,123,435 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 65 | 149 | 169 | 745 | 827 | 845 | 1,937 | 4,135 | 9,685 | 10,751 | 25,181 | 53,755 | 123,223 | 125,905 | 139,763 | 616,115 | 698,815 | 1,601,899 | 8,009,495 | 20,824,687 | 104,123,435 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -65 | -149 | -169 | -745 | -827 | -845 | -1,937 | -4,135 | -9,685 | -10,751 | -25,181 | -53,755 | -123,223 | -125,905 | -139,763 | -616,115 | -698,815 | -1,601,899 | -8,009,495 | -20,824,687 | -104,123,435 |
