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 114,187,525, 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 | 114,187,525 | |
| -1 | -114,187,525 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 114,187,525.
Example:
1 x 114,187,525 = 114,187,525
and
-1 x -114,187,525 = 114,187,525
Notice both answers equal 114,187,525
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 114,187,525 and divide it by 2:
114,187,525 ÷ 2 = 57,093,762.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 57,093,762.5 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 | 114,187,525 | |
| -1 | -114,187,525 |
Now, we try dividing 114,187,525 by 3:
114,187,525 ÷ 3 = 38,062,508.3333
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 38,062,508.3333 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 | 114,187,525 | |
| -1 | -114,187,525 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
114,187,525 ÷ 4 = 28,546,881.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,546,881.25 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 | 114,187,525 | |
| -1 | 114,187,525 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 5 | 23 | 25 | 71 | 115 | 355 | 575 | 1,633 | 1,775 | 2,797 | 8,165 | 13,985 | 40,825 | 64,331 | 69,925 | 198,587 | 321,655 | 992,935 | 1,608,275 | 4,567,501 | 4,964,675 | 22,837,505 | 114,187,525 |
| -1 | -5 | -23 | -25 | -71 | -115 | -355 | -575 | -1,633 | -1,775 | -2,797 | -8,165 | -13,985 | -40,825 | -64,331 | -69,925 | -198,587 | -321,655 | -992,935 | -1,608,275 | -4,567,501 | -4,964,675 | -22,837,505 | -114,187,525 |
