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 104,430,005, 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 | 104,430,005 | |
| -1 | -104,430,005 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 104,430,005.
Example:
1 x 104,430,005 = 104,430,005
and
-1 x -104,430,005 = 104,430,005
Notice both answers equal 104,430,005
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 104,430,005 and divide it by 2:
104,430,005 ÷ 2 = 52,215,002.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 52,215,002.5 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 | 104,430,005 | |
| -1 | -104,430,005 |
Now, we try dividing 104,430,005 by 3:
104,430,005 ÷ 3 = 34,810,001.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 34,810,001.6667 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 | 104,430,005 | |
| -1 | -104,430,005 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
104,430,005 ÷ 4 = 26,107,501.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 26,107,501.25 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 | 104,430,005 | |
| -1 | 104,430,005 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 47 | 115 | 139 | 235 | 695 | 1,081 | 3,197 | 5,405 | 6,533 | 15,985 | 19,321 | 32,665 | 96,605 | 150,259 | 444,383 | 751,295 | 908,087 | 2,221,915 | 4,540,435 | 20,886,001 | 104,430,005 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -47 | -115 | -139 | -235 | -695 | -1,081 | -3,197 | -5,405 | -6,533 | -15,985 | -19,321 | -32,665 | -96,605 | -150,259 | -444,383 | -751,295 | -908,087 | -2,221,915 | -4,540,435 | -20,886,001 | -104,430,005 |
