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 114,032,045, 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 | 114,032,045 | |
| -1 | -114,032,045 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 114,032,045.
Example:
1 x 114,032,045 = 114,032,045
and
-1 x -114,032,045 = 114,032,045
Notice both answers equal 114,032,045
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 114,032,045 and divide it by 2:
114,032,045 ÷ 2 = 57,016,022.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 57,016,022.5 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 | 114,032,045 | |
| -1 | -114,032,045 |
Now, we try dividing 114,032,045 by 3:
114,032,045 ÷ 3 = 38,010,681.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 38,010,681.6667 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 | 114,032,045 | |
| -1 | -114,032,045 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
114,032,045 ÷ 4 = 28,508,011.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,508,011.25 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 | 114,032,045 | |
| -1 | 114,032,045 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 115 | 761 | 1,303 | 3,805 | 6,515 | 17,503 | 29,969 | 87,515 | 149,845 | 991,583 | 4,957,915 | 22,806,409 | 114,032,045 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -115 | -761 | -1,303 | -3,805 | -6,515 | -17,503 | -29,969 | -87,515 | -149,845 | -991,583 | -4,957,915 | -22,806,409 | -114,032,045 |
