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 112,060,073, 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 | 112,060,073 | |
| -1 | -112,060,073 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 112,060,073.
Example:
1 x 112,060,073 = 112,060,073
and
-1 x -112,060,073 = 112,060,073
Notice both answers equal 112,060,073
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 112,060,073 and divide it by 2:
112,060,073 ÷ 2 = 56,030,036.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 56,030,036.5 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 | 112,060,073 | |
| -1 | -112,060,073 |
Now, we try dividing 112,060,073 by 3:
112,060,073 ÷ 3 = 37,353,357.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 37,353,357.6667 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 | 112,060,073 | |
| -1 | -112,060,073 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
112,060,073 ÷ 4 = 28,015,018.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,015,018.25 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 | 112,060,073 | |
| -1 | 112,060,073 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 17 | 53 | 277 | 449 | 901 | 4,709 | 7,633 | 14,681 | 23,797 | 124,373 | 249,577 | 404,549 | 2,114,341 | 6,591,769 | 112,060,073 |
| -1 | -17 | -53 | -277 | -449 | -901 | -4,709 | -7,633 | -14,681 | -23,797 | -124,373 | -249,577 | -404,549 | -2,114,341 | -6,591,769 | -112,060,073 |
