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 110,609,431, 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 | 110,609,431 | |
| -1 | -110,609,431 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 110,609,431.
Example:
1 x 110,609,431 = 110,609,431
and
-1 x -110,609,431 = 110,609,431
Notice both answers equal 110,609,431
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 110,609,431 and divide it by 2:
110,609,431 ÷ 2 = 55,304,715.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 55,304,715.5 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 | 110,609,431 | |
| -1 | -110,609,431 |
Now, we try dividing 110,609,431 by 3:
110,609,431 ÷ 3 = 36,869,810.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 36,869,810.3333 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 | 110,609,431 | |
| -1 | -110,609,431 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
110,609,431 ÷ 4 = 27,652,357.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 27,652,357.75 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 | 110,609,431 | |
| -1 | 110,609,431 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 19 | 41 | 107 | 779 | 1,327 | 2,033 | 4,387 | 25,213 | 54,407 | 83,353 | 141,989 | 1,033,733 | 2,697,791 | 5,821,549 | 110,609,431 |
| -1 | -19 | -41 | -107 | -779 | -1,327 | -2,033 | -4,387 | -25,213 | -54,407 | -83,353 | -141,989 | -1,033,733 | -2,697,791 | -5,821,549 | -110,609,431 |
