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 112,115,353, 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 | 112,115,353 | |
| -1 | -112,115,353 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 112,115,353.
Example:
1 x 112,115,353 = 112,115,353
and
-1 x -112,115,353 = 112,115,353
Notice both answers equal 112,115,353
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 112,115,353 and divide it by 2:
112,115,353 ÷ 2 = 56,057,676.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 56,057,676.5 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 | 112,115,353 | |
| -1 | -112,115,353 |
Now, we try dividing 112,115,353 by 3:
112,115,353 ÷ 3 = 37,371,784.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 37,371,784.3333 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 | 112,115,353 | |
| -1 | -112,115,353 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
112,115,353 ÷ 4 = 28,028,838.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,028,838.25 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 | 112,115,353 | |
| -1 | 112,115,353 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 7 | 101 | 347 | 457 | 707 | 2,429 | 3,199 | 35,047 | 46,157 | 158,579 | 245,329 | 323,099 | 1,110,053 | 16,016,479 | 112,115,353 |
| -1 | -7 | -101 | -347 | -457 | -707 | -2,429 | -3,199 | -35,047 | -46,157 | -158,579 | -245,329 | -323,099 | -1,110,053 | -16,016,479 | -112,115,353 |
