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 110,237,023, 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 | 110,237,023 | |
| -1 | -110,237,023 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 110,237,023.
Example:
1 x 110,237,023 = 110,237,023
and
-1 x -110,237,023 = 110,237,023
Notice both answers equal 110,237,023
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 110,237,023 and divide it by 2:
110,237,023 ÷ 2 = 55,118,511.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 55,118,511.5 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 | 110,237,023 | |
| -1 | -110,237,023 |
Now, we try dividing 110,237,023 by 3:
110,237,023 ÷ 3 = 36,745,674.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 36,745,674.3333 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 | 110,237,023 | |
| -1 | -110,237,023 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
110,237,023 ÷ 4 = 27,559,255.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 27,559,255.75 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 | 110,237,023 | |
| -1 | 110,237,023 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 13 | 31 | 37 | 403 | 481 | 1,147 | 7,393 | 14,911 | 96,109 | 229,183 | 273,541 | 2,979,379 | 3,556,033 | 8,479,771 | 110,237,023 |
| -1 | -13 | -31 | -37 | -403 | -481 | -1,147 | -7,393 | -14,911 | -96,109 | -229,183 | -273,541 | -2,979,379 | -3,556,033 | -8,479,771 | -110,237,023 |
