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 113,244,535, 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 | 113,244,535 | |
| -1 | -113,244,535 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 113,244,535.
Example:
1 x 113,244,535 = 113,244,535
and
-1 x -113,244,535 = 113,244,535
Notice both answers equal 113,244,535
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 113,244,535 and divide it by 2:
113,244,535 ÷ 2 = 56,622,267.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 56,622,267.5 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 | 113,244,535 | |
| -1 | -113,244,535 |
Now, we try dividing 113,244,535 by 3:
113,244,535 ÷ 3 = 37,748,178.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 37,748,178.3333 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 | 113,244,535 | |
| -1 | -113,244,535 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
113,244,535 ÷ 4 = 28,311,133.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,311,133.75 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 | 113,244,535 | |
| -1 | 113,244,535 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 73 | 365 | 449 | 691 | 2,245 | 3,455 | 32,777 | 50,443 | 163,885 | 252,215 | 310,259 | 1,551,295 | 22,648,907 | 113,244,535 |
| -1 | -5 | -73 | -365 | -449 | -691 | -2,245 | -3,455 | -32,777 | -50,443 | -163,885 | -252,215 | -310,259 | -1,551,295 | -22,648,907 | -113,244,535 |
