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 107,704,003, 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 | 107,704,003 | |
| -1 | -107,704,003 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 107,704,003.
Example:
1 x 107,704,003 = 107,704,003
and
-1 x -107,704,003 = 107,704,003
Notice both answers equal 107,704,003
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 107,704,003 and divide it by 2:
107,704,003 ÷ 2 = 53,852,001.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 53,852,001.5 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 | 107,704,003 | |
| -1 | -107,704,003 |
Now, we try dividing 107,704,003 by 3:
107,704,003 ÷ 3 = 35,901,334.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 35,901,334.3333 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 | 107,704,003 | |
| -1 | -107,704,003 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
107,704,003 ÷ 4 = 26,926,000.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 26,926,000.75 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 | 107,704,003 | |
| -1 | 107,704,003 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 11 | 37 | 53 | 407 | 583 | 1,961 | 4,993 | 21,571 | 54,923 | 184,741 | 264,629 | 2,032,151 | 2,910,919 | 9,791,273 | 107,704,003 |
| -1 | -11 | -37 | -53 | -407 | -583 | -1,961 | -4,993 | -21,571 | -54,923 | -184,741 | -264,629 | -2,032,151 | -2,910,919 | -9,791,273 | -107,704,003 |
