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 106,522,351, 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 | 106,522,351 | |
| -1 | -106,522,351 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 106,522,351.
Example:
1 x 106,522,351 = 106,522,351
and
-1 x -106,522,351 = 106,522,351
Notice both answers equal 106,522,351
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 106,522,351 and divide it by 2:
106,522,351 ÷ 2 = 53,261,175.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 53,261,175.5 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 | 106,522,351 | |
| -1 | -106,522,351 |
Now, we try dividing 106,522,351 by 3:
106,522,351 ÷ 3 = 35,507,450.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 35,507,450.3333 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 | 106,522,351 | |
| -1 | -106,522,351 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
106,522,351 ÷ 4 = 26,630,587.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 26,630,587.75 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 | 106,522,351 | |
| -1 | 106,522,351 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 47 | 313 | 557 | 611 | 4,069 | 7,241 | 14,711 | 26,179 | 174,341 | 191,243 | 340,327 | 2,266,433 | 8,194,027 | 106,522,351 |
| -1 | -13 | -47 | -313 | -557 | -611 | -4,069 | -7,241 | -14,711 | -26,179 | -174,341 | -191,243 | -340,327 | -2,266,433 | -8,194,027 | -106,522,351 |
