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 113,423,555, 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 | 113,423,555 | |
| -1 | -113,423,555 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 113,423,555.
Example:
1 x 113,423,555 = 113,423,555
and
-1 x -113,423,555 = 113,423,555
Notice both answers equal 113,423,555
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 113,423,555 and divide it by 2:
113,423,555 ÷ 2 = 56,711,777.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 56,711,777.5 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 | 113,423,555 | |
| -1 | -113,423,555 |
Now, we try dividing 113,423,555 by 3:
113,423,555 ÷ 3 = 37,807,851.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 37,807,851.6667 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 | 113,423,555 | |
| -1 | -113,423,555 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
113,423,555 ÷ 4 = 28,355,888.75
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,355,888.75 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 | 113,423,555 | |
| -1 | 113,423,555 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 7 | 35 | 97 | 485 | 679 | 3,395 | 33,409 | 167,045 | 233,863 | 1,169,315 | 3,240,673 | 16,203,365 | 22,684,711 | 113,423,555 |
| -1 | -5 | -7 | -35 | -97 | -485 | -679 | -3,395 | -33,409 | -167,045 | -233,863 | -1,169,315 | -3,240,673 | -16,203,365 | -22,684,711 | -113,423,555 |
