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 114,304,433, 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 | 114,304,433 | |
| -1 | -114,304,433 |
When you multiply two negative numbers together, you get a positive number. That means both the positive and negative numbers are factors of 114,304,433.
Example:
1 x 114,304,433 = 114,304,433
and
-1 x -114,304,433 = 114,304,433
Notice both answers equal 114,304,433
With that explanation out of the way, let's continue. Next, we take the number 114,304,433 and divide it by 2:
114,304,433 ÷ 2 = 57,152,216.5
If the quotient is a whole number, then 2 and 57,152,216.5 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 | 114,304,433 | |
| -1 | -114,304,433 |
Now, we try dividing 114,304,433 by 3:
114,304,433 ÷ 3 = 38,101,477.6667
If the quotient is a whole number, then 3 and 38,101,477.6667 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 | 114,304,433 | |
| -1 | -114,304,433 |
Let's try dividing by 4:
114,304,433 ÷ 4 = 28,576,108.25
If the quotient is a whole number, then 4 and 28,576,108.25 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 | 114,304,433 | |
| -1 | 114,304,433 |
If you did it right, you will end up with this table:
| 1 | 37 | 41 | 151 | 499 | 1,517 | 5,587 | 6,191 | 18,463 | 20,459 | 75,349 | 229,067 | 756,983 | 2,787,913 | 3,089,309 | 114,304,433 |
| -1 | -37 | -41 | -151 | -499 | -1,517 | -5,587 | -6,191 | -18,463 | -20,459 | -75,349 | -229,067 | -756,983 | -2,787,913 | -3,089,309 | -114,304,433 |
