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 110,284,645, 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 | 110,284,645 | |
| -1 | -110,284,645 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 110,284,645.
Example:
1 x 110,284,645 = 110,284,645
and
-1 x -110,284,645 = 110,284,645
Notice both answers equal 110,284,645
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 110,284,645 and divide it by 2:
110,284,645 ÷ 2 = 55,142,322.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 55,142,322.5 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 | 110,284,645 | |
| -1 | -110,284,645 |
Now, we try dividing 110,284,645 by 3:
110,284,645 ÷ 3 = 36,761,548.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 36,761,548.3333 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 | 110,284,645 | |
| -1 | -110,284,645 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
110,284,645 ÷ 4 = 27,571,161.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 27,571,161.25 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 | 110,284,645 | |
| -1 | 110,284,645 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 19 | 61 | 95 | 305 | 1,159 | 5,795 | 19,031 | 95,155 | 361,589 | 1,160,891 | 1,807,945 | 5,804,455 | 22,056,929 | 110,284,645 |
| -1 | -5 | -19 | -61 | -95 | -305 | -1,159 | -5,795 | -19,031 | -95,155 | -361,589 | -1,160,891 | -1,807,945 | -5,804,455 | -22,056,929 | -110,284,645 |
