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 107,150,177, 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 | 107,150,177 | |
| -1 | -107,150,177 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 107,150,177.
Example:
1 x 107,150,177 = 107,150,177
and
-1 x -107,150,177 = 107,150,177
Notice both answers equal 107,150,177
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 107,150,177 and divide it by 2:
107,150,177 ÷ 2 = 53,575,088.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 53,575,088.5 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 | 107,150,177 | |
| -1 | -107,150,177 |
Now, we try dividing 107,150,177 by 3:
107,150,177 ÷ 3 = 35,716,725.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 35,716,725.6667 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 | 107,150,177 | |
| -1 | -107,150,177 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
107,150,177 ÷ 4 = 26,787,544.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 26,787,544.25 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 | 107,150,177 | |
| -1 | 107,150,177 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 47 | 97 | 893 | 1,237 | 1,843 | 4,559 | 23,503 | 58,139 | 86,621 | 119,989 | 1,104,641 | 2,279,791 | 5,639,483 | 107,150,177 |
| -1 | -19 | -47 | -97 | -893 | -1,237 | -1,843 | -4,559 | -23,503 | -58,139 | -86,621 | -119,989 | -1,104,641 | -2,279,791 | -5,639,483 | -107,150,177 |
