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 112,302,125, 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 | 112,302,125 | |
| -1 | -112,302,125 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 112,302,125.
Example:
1 x 112,302,125 = 112,302,125
and
-1 x -112,302,125 = 112,302,125
Notice both answers equal 112,302,125
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 112,302,125 and divide it by 2:
112,302,125 ÷ 2 = 56,151,062.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 56,151,062.5 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 | 112,302,125 | |
| -1 | -112,302,125 |
Now, we try dividing 112,302,125 by 3:
112,302,125 ÷ 3 = 37,434,041.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 37,434,041.6667 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 | 112,302,125 | |
| -1 | -112,302,125 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
112,302,125 ÷ 4 = 28,075,531.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,075,531.25 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 | 112,302,125 | |
| -1 | 112,302,125 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 25 | 65 | 125 | 325 | 1,625 | 69,109 | 345,545 | 898,417 | 1,727,725 | 4,492,085 | 8,638,625 | 22,460,425 | 112,302,125 |
| -1 | -5 | -13 | -25 | -65 | -125 | -325 | -1,625 | -69,109 | -345,545 | -898,417 | -1,727,725 | -4,492,085 | -8,638,625 | -22,460,425 | -112,302,125 |
